Man drowns after falling through ice
From the Associated Press
Authorities say a 41-year-old man playing with family members died after falling through the ice at a small lake in the Angeles National Forest.
San Bernardino County coroner’s officials say Claro Claridad of Victorville walked onto 7-acre Jackson Lake on Tuesday afternoon, possibly to help adults trying to rescue children who might have broken through the ice.
The others were unharmed, but Claridad went under the water’s surface and drowned.
