BOATER FOUND FLOATING IN WATER

The United States Coast Guard – Lorain Station, discovered a boater who had fallen overboard early this evening. The Coast Guard had received a call of a boat drifting with no one on board. Shortly after, a call came in for a man floating in the water with a lifejacket on. When the Coast Guard found the man they pulled him from the water and began CPR. They brought the man to Beaver Park Marina North where two LifeCare Ambulances were waiting. Paramedics began treating the man, continuing performing CPR and transported him to Community Health Partners in Lorain, where he was pronounced dead.

The Coast Guard is investigating.
