Trump publicly invites heroic Santa Cruz lifeguard to White House
Trump plans to welcome the 16-year-old lifeguard and award him a high civilian honor after he rescued a 10-year-old boy.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced plans to host a 16-year-old lifeguard and his family at the White House to receive a high civilian honor following a dramatic rescue at Seabright State Beach.
- The invitation followed viral video footage from Saturday showing the teen wading into the Pacific Ocean to pull a 10-year-old boy from dangerous surf at the Santa Cruz beach.
- California State Parks lifeguards performed 34 rescues over the weekend as massive swells pounded the coast, with officials initiating 5,000 preventative contacts to warn beachgoers of rapidly changing, deadly conditions.
- Eric Trump first shared the footage online, praising the teen's 'stunning lifesaving skills,' while photographer Scott Vander Dussen urged support for House Resolution 1188 to reclassify lifeguards as first responders.
- The National Weather Service warns of dangerous rip currents along the Pacific Coast through Wednesday, while the teen has reportedly avoided the limelight, turning down interview requests after his courageous efforts.
