Police have released audio of a call between emergency services and a 13-year-old Australian boy who swam for hours to get help for his family after they were swept out to sea earlier in February.

In the call, Austin Appelbee says his siblings – brother Beau, 12, and sister Grace eight – and their mother were still in the water.

“I don’t know what their condition is right now and I’m really scared,” he says.

The boy also describes feeling “extremely tired” after the grueling ordeal.

Austin passed out after making the call and was taken to the hospital, where he was told his siblings and mother were found alive and well after being rescued 14km (8.5 miles) offshore.
