Oregon State Police said in a news release that multiple agencies responded to a report of a man washed off shore at Rocky Creek Scenic View Point Friday morning. Police say Kelly Bennett Smith from Athens, Georgia, was visiting the coast for the first time with friends after finishing a job in Corvallis, Oregon.
