LAKE CHARLES, La. (AP) - Authorities in Calcasieu Parish have recovered the body of a 45-year-old man who fell into the waters of Lake Charles without wearing a life jacket.
The body of George Dixon Jr., who was from the city of Lake Charles, was recovered early Sunday, about four hours after he fell off a boat and did not resurface Saturday night.
A news release from the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries says teams from the department and the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office used sonar to find the body, which was turned over to the coroner’s office.
