Rescuers find the lost Australian surfer on the uninhabited island:

A teenage Australian surfer feared that the lost in the sea were rescued on Thursday after spending the night on an unbound island, local officials and media said.

According to the reports, the man, appointed in the local media like Darcy Deefholts, 19, went to surf the beach in Wooli, a coastal city at 300 miles north of Sydney.

He had left home on Wednesday afternoon.

“When he did not return home, worried family members contacted the officers,” said New South Wales Police in the statement.

Police launched a search for land and water around Wooli beach and the surfer was “safely located” on the small island the next day, they said.

In a Facebook post, Marine Rescue NSW said her search teams were “jumping for joy” when they located the missing surfer.

“What an incredible result!” Marine Rescue NSW said.

Deefholts was found after his father Terry made an emotional plea on social networks for help with the search.

“I am asking anyone with a dizzy container who meets with me on the main Wooli boat ramp and take the sea to help with the search,” Terry Deepholts wrote on Facebook.

Darcy Deepholts spent the night at North Solitary Island, about seven miles from the coast, according to Sydney’s Daily Telegraph.

The rescue was a “one in a million miracles,” Terry Deefholts told the newspaper after saying before saying on social networks that he had feared the worst.

His son was receiving medical treatment.
