RedactedNarrative: On 07/09/13, I was notified via e mail, regarding a boat accident involving a canoe which flipped over with one of the occupants drowning as a result.
  
       On 07/09/13, at approximately 12:00 p.m., CPO and I arrived at the Harvard Police Department.  Chief met with us and showed us the preliminary report explaining what happened.  On 07/08/13, at approximately 7:28 p.m., Officer with the Harvard Police Department responded to a report of kids screaming at a retention pond.  There were three male children (ages 12, 12, 10) fishing out of a canoe which had flipped over when they all leaned to one side.  One 12 year old was unable to swim and drowned.  Both of the other occupants tried to save the first, but he was thrashing his arms and they were forced to let go when they began taking water into their mouths.  The 10 year old swam to shore and ran to call for help.  The 12 year old was rescued by a neighbor.  See Harvard''s report for more details (scanned into this report).
    
  The victim was in the middle of the canoe.
