MANITOWOC COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) – A search continued Monday for a 51-year-old Milwaukee man who may have drowned in the Eaton Twin Lakes near St. Nazianz in Manitowoc County.
Sheriff’s officials said the man was on a swimming noodle, and his girlfriend was on a blowup raft. She looked away, and when she turned around, she saw that her boyfriend disappeared from the noodle.
The incident was reported late Sunday afternoon. Local rescue teams and state DNR personnel responded.
Officials said alcohol might have been a factor — and the search effort is being made difficult by murky water that’s more than 20 feet deep in some places.
