19-year-old man dies in apparent drowning in South Idaho

NAMPA (AP) — Authorities say a 19-year-old man died after drowning at Lake Lowell east of Nampa.

KTVB-TV reports paramedics and sheriff's deputies received a report of a drowning at the lake Sunday evening.

Officials say a bystander jumped into the water to try to save the man.

Officials say after the man was pulled out of the water, CPR was performed on him in hopes of reviving him, but he remained unresponsive and was pronounced dead shortly after.

Officials believe the man may have been at the lake with friends, but have not said what may have caused him to go underwater.

The man's identity has not been released pending family notification.
