JAMESTOWN -- A 49-year-old Smithfield man who died Saturday when swept away from the rocky shore at Beavertail State Park was identified yesterday as Gary Bradbury, of Terrace Drive, according to the Department of Environmental Management.
Bradbury was fishing when a crashing wave swept him into the water shortly before 5 a.m. A DEM spokeswoman said the drowning appeared to be accidental.
Bradbury's body was pulled from the surf about 90 minutes after the incident by town firefighters.
