Ocean Safety officials rescued three 15-year-old boys and one 17-year-old boy who were injured after jumping off of a cliff into the waters between Hanauma Bay and Lanai Lookout on Saturday.

The boys were unable to get out of the water due to strong surf, officials said. A witness said the fourth boy attempted to rescue the other boys.
