Witnesses describe a PWC being operated by the victim in the vicinity of Wolf Creek Park, Lake Livingston, in San Jacinto County Texas. The weather was windy and the water was very rough. The victim was seen to fall off the PWC. According to witnesses, Operator was swimming toward the PWC which was traveling in a circular motion around where he'd fallen off. The witnesses say that he was not wearing a PFD. When the witnesses looked to where they had seen Operator was gone, but the PWC was still going in a circular motion. They called 911 at about 12:30 PM.
The PWC was recovered by another boater. The lanyard was attached to the PWC but not to Operator.
The search resumed until the State Game Warden dive team arrived with the Sea Scan Sonar unit. Wardens located the body at approximately 2130 and brought the victim ashore to be examined by the Justice of the Peace.
