The actor, who also appeared in The Fighter, was pulled from the water by a fire fighter and three teens after disappearing during a routine swim in the ocean.

The 54-year-old sparked concerns with local firefighters when they noticed how far out he was swimming.

Following a search of the water, an off-duty firefighter found him unconscious in the water, and performed CPR before Malone was transported to Boston Medical Centre.
