A 10th person has died several days after a fire broke out at an assisted living facility in Fall River. Rip currents are responsible for the majority of surf-zone fatalities every year in the U.S. A former Major League Baseball player died Sunday while trying to save swimmers from a rip tide off the coast of South Carolina, authorities said.

Brenda Cropper, 66, had been hospitalized in critical condition for several days. She was the 10th person killed in the Fall River fire.

A funeral home in Fall River is offering free funeral and cremation services to families who lost someone in a deadly fire that tore through an assisted living facility, killing 10.
