    Malcolm-Jamal Warner drowns in Costa Rica while vacationing with family; officials confirm it was likely an accident

    Local police said that 54-year-old Warner drowned on Sunday. He was reportedly on vacation with his family at the time, and the incident appears to have been accidental. As of Monday night, his wife is working to bring his body back to the U.S. for a funeral.

    Authorities in Costa Rica said on Monday that Malcolm-Jamal Warner was in the water at Playa Cocles, in the Limón area, when he got pulled by a strong current. The nation's Judicial Investigation Department said that people near him got him back to land, but he was out cold by the time the Costa Rican Red Cross got there.

    Even with their help, there were no signs he could hear them, showing things were very bad before help could step in. In a statement, the Costa Rican Red Cross added that a different man was brought to a nearby hospital in perilous condition due to the incident.
