Juan Guilherme Martins, 14 years old, disappeared in Praia do Pontal. Personal Archive The body of teenager Juan Guilherme Martins, aged 14, was found this Wednesday morning (22) by teams from the Fire Department, at Praia do Pontal, in Arraial do Cabo, in the Lagos Region, in Rio. The young man had been missing since last Friday (17), when he entered the sea to dive. The searches, carried out by teams from the 18th Military Firefighter Group (Cabo Frio), lasted five days and were made difficult by sea conditions, which remained rough due to the undertow. The team had the support of boats, watercraft and drones. ? Follow the g1 Região dos Lagos channel on WhatsApp.

Authorities advise swimmers to respect signage on beaches and avoid entering the sea while undertow conditions persist, due to the risk posed by strong waves and rip currents.
