DICKINSON, N.D. (AP) - A man has drowned on Lake Patterson in Dickinson.

Stark County Sheriff’s Capt. Dean Franchuk says 42-year-old Jeffrey Hieb was fishing Saturday with his 8-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son when their canoe tipped over.

Franchuk says another boater pulled the kids to safety, but Hieb died.

He says Hieb was from Lander, Wyo., but had been working for a Dickinson company.
