CAMPBELL, CA \u2014 A 31-year-old Bay Area man died Saturday while swimming at a lake in Northern California, the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office said. <\/p>\n
Deputies say the Campbell man swam to an island about 90 feet from the shore in Lake Tulloch sometime around 1 p.m. Lake Tulloch is about 75 miles northeast of Modesto. <\/p>\n
On the swim back, he got tired and struggled to stay above water before drowning, authorities said, adding that he wasn’t wearing a flotation device. <\/p>\n
Officers responded to the scene around 1:08 p.m. and began looking for the man’s body with the help of his friends, deputies said. <\/p>\n
Rescue crews searched for hours to no avail. They finally found him 28 feet underwater around 4 p.m. after deploying an underwater remotely operated vehicle, deputies said. <\/p>\n
His body has since been released to the Calaveras County Coroner\u2019s Office, deputies said. His identity was not immediately released.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CAMPBELL, CA \u2014 A 31-year-old Bay Area man died Saturday while swimming at a lake in Northern California,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":343630,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[88,90,89],"class_list":["post-343629","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-jose","tag-san-jose","tag-san-jose-headlines","tag-san-jose-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343629","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=343629"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343629\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/343630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=343629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=343629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=343629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
