Sunday morning later died at a San Francisco hospital,
according to the National Park Service.
A dispatcher with the San Francisco Fire Department said
medical personnel responded to Ocean Beach near Sloat
Boulevard and Great Highway around 10 a.m. after a
caller reported that a person was unconscious on the
beach.
National Park Service rangers were notified of the
incident and headed to that location at 10:09 a.m. as

victim, according to a National Park Service report.
