CLEVELAND -- One man has died after attempting to save a boy from drowning at Euclid Beach Park Saturday evening. 

Rescue crews first received a call for a swimmer in distress came in around 4:35 p.m. 

Fire crews say two people were missing in the water.

Witnesses say a 24-year-old man entered the water, attempting to help a boy in distress. 

According to MetroParks Rangers, a 10-year-old was found by a good Samaritan who heard the calls for help. The Samaritan ran down to the beach and pulled the boy out of the water in less than 5 minutes. 

Rescue crews arrived and took the boy to Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital. 

Over an hour after the initial call, dive teams pulled 24-year-old Euclid resident Traveno Sledge from the water. Eyewitnesses say he is the boyfriend of the 10-year-old's mother.  

Sledge was taken to Euclid Hospital by rescue crews where he later died.

The area where the boy was swimming does not have a lifeguard on duty.

Both the Cleveland Fire Department and Cleveland MetroParks Rangers had dive teams at the scene.

The U.S. Coast Guard also responded to assist with search efforts.
