A bodyless head that washed ashore in South Florida has been identified as that of a 19-year-old swimmer who went missing in Miami Beach after he tried to rescue his younger sister from a rip current, authorities said.
Victor Enrique Castaneda, Jr. was reported missing near a jetty on Nov. 9. His disappearance led to an unsuccessful search by local officials and the U.S. Coast Guard, media outlets reported.
Meanwhile, a man's head was found Nov. 12 by a beach worker in Key Biscayne, the barrier island just off Miami. On Friday, the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner confirmed that the human remains were those of Castaneda. A cause and manner of death have not been released.
