About
Hero
A brave dad drowned trying to rescue his two young sons after they were swept into the sea.
He saved one boy but died along with the other as his wife watched helplessly from the beach.
Symon Howlett, 32, was photographing the pair on rocks at a Spanish beauty spot when a huge wave hit. He dived in and helped his nine-year-old son ashore before trying to reach the boy’s five-year-old brother.
