RedactedNarrative: On 05/25/14 at 0922 hrs, the reporting officer was contacted and notified that a drowning had just occurred on Milford Lake. The information received was that the victim was fishing from a pontoon boat with his grandson, when he fell into the water trying to retrieve a fishing pole. The passenger of the pontoon, a juvenile, was left on the boat. The juvenile said that once he was in the water, the victim instructed him to throw him a lifejacket or he would drown, which the juvenile did. A second boater nearby saw the victim go into the water and then the juvenile yell for help, so they rode over to assist. The victim did not resurface. 
  
  The reporting officer and other KDWPT officers began a search of the area, above and below the water with sonar and dragging equipment. During the search, a fishing pole was recovered that was identified as the one the victim was using. The search was called off for the day just before dark. On 05/26/14, the search resumed at approximately 0700 hrs. Officers again searched above and below the water with sonar and dragging equipment. A couple clothing items were retrieved from the water that were presumed to be the victim''s, but he was not located. 
  
  Officers searched off and on throughout the day on 05/27/14 and 05/28/14 with no luck. On the afternoon of 05/28/14, the victim was located floating in the general search area. Officers recovered the body, which was identified as the victim. The county coroner arrived and removed the body from the scene to conduct an autopsy, which concluded that the victim died of drowning.
