Police in New York said two teenagers died while swimming at Coney Island Beach in Brooklyn, a news report said.
Police were called to the beach boardwalk and Stillwell Avenue around 8 p.m. Friday, WABC-TV reported.
Witnesses told the television station that a rain storm began and most people at the beach took shelter, but two young women went into the ocean.
After a search by police, emergency responders pulled the young women, aged 17 and 18, from the water around 9:30 p.m. and they were transported to a hospital. They were later pronounced dead, WABC reported.
A man who attempted to help the teens remained missing Friday night, the station reported.
The New York Police Department did not immediately respond to a message from The Associated Press seeking more information.
