Eyewitness NewsATLANTIC CITY (WABC) -- An elderly man is being hailed as a hero after he saved two children from drowning off the coast of Atlantic City.
Lou Rosso, 70, jumped into the surf to rescue a 10-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy who were struggling in the water on Monday.
It happened as people were gathering for a Fourth of July fireworks show.
Rescuers eventually used floats and a jet ski to help the three back to shore. (Copyright ©2011 WABC-TV/DT. All Rights Reserved.)Get more New Jersey News »
