Tsunami Waves Reach Oregon Border Of Crescent City-Four People Swept Out To Sea

Tsunami waves from the massive earthquake in Japan today have reached the Oregon border  of the United States, and has killed one person,  swept three others out to sea and has caused severe damage to the harbor in Crescent City, near the Oregon border.

ABC affiliate KDRV confirmed the waves pulled the four out to sea late Friday morning. Two of the other people were found alive and one was still unaccounted for.

Del Norte County sheriff's spokesman Bill Stevens said most boats were pulled out of the harbor in preparation for Friday's tsunami, but 35 vessels that remained are crashing into one another and sinking.

The wooden docks also were breaking apart under the force of the waves. More
