Arab man drowns at Sharjah beach

A 38-year-old Jordanian man died after he drowned while swimming at a beach in Sharjah, the second such incident in the same area in two days.

Police divers plucked the man out of the water in Al Khan area but he was already dead. His body was taken to the coroner to determine the death cause.

Police again appealed for the public to refrain from swimming in banned areas because of strong currents and other hazards.

A 75-year-old Kuwaiti man drowned while swimming in the same area  two days ago.
