The two friends killed after being swept into the ocean in Santa Cruz County became trapped by a freak wave and pulled underwater by the punishing tide, authorities revealed — as a rescuer detailed the treacherous conditions that claimed their lives. Harshita Nair, 21, and Mahial Sran, 20, both of Fremont, had made their way through a keyhole at Panther Beach in Bonny Doon to sunbathe last Wednesday when they were sealed off from escape by “sneaker wave” just before sunset, Cal Fire spokesman Michael Horn told The California Post. 9 The keyhole at Panther Beach where the two young women became trapped.
