A 60-year-old man named Huang from Miaoli City drove to Hualien to watch the sea yesterday but got his car stuck on the beach. Despite efforts from a truck and a tractor to help pull the car out, they couldn't keep up with the rising tide. Huang was swept away by waves while trying to retrieve items from the car. Search and rescue operations by the coast guard and firefighters have yielded no results. Witnesses reported that a car drove into the water's edge beach area and got stuck due to the tires sinking. Despite attempts to tow the car, it was also stuck. As the car was about to be submerged, Huang went back to retrieve items from the car and was swept away by the waves. Rescue efforts are ongoing, and Huang's family waits on the shore in hopes of a miracle.
