Medical professional details near-drowning rescue of Malcolm-Jamal Warner: No detectable life signs encountered

In tragic news, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, beloved star of "The Cosby Show," died last Sunday due to asphyxiation by submersion, following a drowning incident near Cocles beach in Limón province, Costa Rica.

The incident occurred in a relatively secluded setting, as few people were on the beach at the time. Warner was with his 8-year-old daughter when they got caught in a strong rip current, a common hazard in the rough sea that day.

A Good Samaritan, who was holidaying in Costa Rica and happened to be a doctor, was about 200 metres away when they heard people crying for help. Without any rescue equipment, the doctor bravely dived into the sea to try and save Warner.

Three physicians were present at the scene, including the doctor who attempted to resuscitate Warner. However, when first responders began providing first aid, Warner had no vital signs. The doctor's efforts, though valiant, were not enough to revive Warner.

In a heartening turn of events, the Good Samaritan's actions were instrumental in pulling Warner out of the water after a few minutes. Unfortunately, Warner could not be revived. His 8-year-old daughter was rescued by a bystander shortly after.

The death of Malcolm-Jamal Warner has been ruled accidental. Authorities responded quickly, but specific details about the rescuers, including the identity of the doctor, are not publicly available at this time.
