Default Teenage boy 'swept away' by sea

An early victim of the storm predicted to hit the UK any time soon but the question I would ask is what is a fourteen year old doing swimming when such a weather forecast is announced

Quote:
A 14-year-old boy has been swept away by the sea in Sussex, police say.
Sussex Police received a call at 16:15 GMT to say the boy, who had been swimming with a friend off West Beach in Newhaven, had been "swept away by the current".
A helicopter and lifeboat are being used in the search for the boy.
A police spokesman said: "This is a very distressing incident and everything possible is being done to try to find the boy."
He added: "All agencies remind people of the dangers of being at seashores in adverse weather, especially in view of the approaching severe weather conditions overnight.
