The doctor tried to save the ‘Cosby Show’ actor from ‘rough’ waters on Costa Rica’s Playa Grande, a beach known for its rip currents and lack of lifeguards
The doctor who tried to save the late Malcolm-Jamal Warner from “rough” waters in Costa Rica last weekend has broken their silence.
The Cosby Show star, 54, died by drowning last Sunday after he and his 8-year-old daughter got caught in a rip tide. His daughter was rescued by a bystander. His death was ruled accidental, and the cause was confirmed as asphyxiation by submersion.
“There were very few people on the beach, and the sea was rough,” the holidaying doctor, who requested to remain anonymous, told Us Weekly, adding they were about 200 metres (660 feet) away at the time they heard people crying for help.
