The incident happened on Monday afternoon at around 4.30 pm at Juhu Beach at Santacruz West.
Due to cyclone storm Biparjoy running in the Arabian Sea in Mumbai, the police blocked all entry points of Juhu beach and didn't allow anyone to enter into the beach area.
Police said, "All eight teenagers went inside the Juhu beach area from BMC's garden at Koliwada and they were playing inside the seawater. While a high wave dragged them inside the seawater. Police are searching for two more teenagers identified as Jay Roshan Tajbariya (15) and Manish Yogesh Oganiya (12). All are residents of the Vakola at Santacruz East."
