It has been reported that ex-WWE star Shad Gaspard has gone missing after a beach swim. Lifeguards have conducted a massive search to try and locate him. He went for a swim at Venice Beach on Sunday this past weekend with his 10-year-old son. Gaspard and his son were caught amongst a group of swimmers around 4 p.m. during a strong rip current. That’s when lifeguards began racing into the water to pull everyone out.
Gaspard’s son was rescued, but the ex-WWE star was nowhere to be found. An official working with the L.A. Fire Department allegedly told media outlets that they believe the 39-year-old “did submerge.” Additionally, a witness at the scene says that Gaspard directed lifeguards to rescue his son first, which they did. The last time Gaspard was seen was when, apparently, a huge wave crashed down on him.
