The big picture: State parks workers found people in distress in the waters and lifeguards helped pull 25 people onto shore, said Jose Ysea, a spokesman with the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department, reports the Tribune.

  • The 23 survivors have been taken to local hospitals for "various degrees" of injury.

What's more: The San Diego Fire Department confirmed the incident via twitter and noted that authorities are still searching the local waters.
