Four friends die trying to save girl from surf
Amy Anderson was in the surf a few yards from the shoreline at Nickel Plate Beach along Ohio's Lake Erie shore when a wave knocked her off balance and the strong current quickly pulled her under. She came up screaming, and her fiance Steve Cupec, 27, and friends Jehrod Smith, 19, Kyle Kroetz, 29, and Matthew Smith, 21, fought against the waves to save her.
Anderson was eventually rescued by firefighters, but the four men died.
