A boy was rescued in Laguna Beach Friday afternoon after becoming trapped in a hole in the sand, authorities confirmed.
The child was reportedly pulled to safety at Aliso Beach Park.
The 6-year-old had been running along the beach when he fell into a 3-feet-deep hole, and then became buried in sand, authorities said.
Three urban search and rescue trucks were called to the scene and one heavy rescue vehicle with a huge vacuum was summoned.
