A teenager who died after getting into difficulty in the water off Bournemouth beach has been named by police as tributes were paid to the 'fabulous young man'.
Joe Abbess, 17, from Southampton, has been described as 'kind and generous, loving and caring, hardworking and funny', by family in a statement issued by Dorset Police. A 12-year-old girl, named in reports as Sunnah Khan, from High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, also died in the incident.
A man in his 40s who was “on the water” at the time was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. He was later released under investigation on Thursday and police inquiries are ongoing.
