Swimmers Rescued Near Pier

Three swimmers had to be rescued from water near the Barcelona Pier in Chautauqua County Sunday afternoon.

The people told sheriff's deputies they were jumping off the breakwall into the water for fun. Because of the waves and strong current, they were not able to swim to shore and had to be pulled out with a rope.

Two of the people had to be taken to the hospital for treatment of exhaustion.

Deputies didn't release the names of the people. They say no charges are pending.
