Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office deputies say a 17-year old was swimming in the water behind the Eglin NCO Beach Club on Okaloosa Island Saturday afternoon and was observed struggling. His father went into the water to rescue him. The juvenile was pulled to the shore and an off duty nurse began CPR. The teen then began breathing. An OCSO Island Beach unit responded to the scene. The victim was transported to Fort Walton Beach Medical Center where at last word he was listed in critical condition. His name and other details were not available as of Sunday morning.
