A 15-year-old California resident named Amari Quarles is being recognized as a hero for his brave actions. Quarles tragically lost his life while trying to rescue his younger sibling from drowning.

According to KCRA 3, Mr. Amari passed away on Sunday while visiting Sand Cove Park in Sacramento. As reported, Amari rushed into the water to aid his 13-year-old brother, Elijah, who was struggling with a football.

Yolanda attempted to help the couple, but was quickly overpowered by the force of the river. According to her account, the situation escalated rapidly. The experience was described as a back-and-forth thrashing.

According to the speaker, the individual in question lacks the ability to engage in physical combat.

According to the user, going against the flow is not possible.According to the speaker, “it” has the ability to pull you down. According to the grieving mother, she recounted the moment she lost her older son, stating,

“I looked down at him and I looked up and I felt his hands drop.” According to the witness, an unknown force intervened and separated the individual from her, resulting in his disappearance.

According to The Sacramento Bee, Amari’s body was discovered by rescue crews a few hours later.

According to James Sashe, the father of the deceased teenager, his son died a hero and he expressed pride in his son’s actions on the family’s GoFundMe page on Monday. According to him, the family relocated to California recently to be closer to their relatives.

According to reports, Amari was a standout student at Natomas High School. The school also released a statement on Facebook confirming his passing.

According to Capt. Justin Sylvia of the Sacramento Fire Department, the rescue team faced challenging conditions due to the frigid and fast-flowing waters of the river.

According to him, the search for someone while battling the strong current can be exhausting.

According to a statement made by an individual, one could potentially be walking and suddenly find themselves submerged in water up to their knees.

According to James, “That river belongs to no one.”
The question posed is: “If it’s challenging for them, how do regular individuals handle it?”

The GoFundMe campaign aimed at covering funeral and burial expenses has garnered nearly $15,000, which is a fraction of its $50,000 target.
