Boater drowns in Weatherford lake

Police in Weatherford, west of Fort Worth, are investigating a drowning.

Two men were fishing in Cartwright Park Lake Wednesday night.

Police say one of them did not know how to swim and fell into the water. He did not have a life jacket on.

The other man went into the water after him, but their boat floated away.

A witness got into the boat, but only found one of the men still above the water.

The victim’s body was recovered Thursday morning.
