Missing Milwaukee Boys Found Dead in Lagoon
From Times Wire Reports
The bodies of two Milwaukee boys missing for almost a month have been recovered from a park lagoon near where they disappeared.
Purvis Virginia Parker, 11, and Quadrevion Henning, 12, were last seen March 19 when they asked Quadrevion’s grandfather if they could play basketball at the nearby park.
Police said the boys accidentally drowned. They speculate that Purvis, who could not swim, somehow fell in and that Quadrevion, a strong swimmer, jumped in to try to save his friend.
