RedactedNarrative: Vessel #1 drove to the area of Red Rocks on Lake Champlain in order for the occupants to go swimming. 
  
  The vessel was drifting, and the occupants began to swim. Subject1 entered the water to go swimming wearing a pfd. A child also entered the water to swim not wearing a pfd. The child began drifting away from the boat due to the high winds and rough waters and began to struggle to stay above water. 
  
  Subject2 entered the water not wearing a pfd in an attempt to assist the child. Operator jumped in the water wearing a pfd to assist the child. Operator gave the pfd to the child, and then began struggling as well. 
  
  Subject3 then jumped in the water wearing a pfd to assist. At this point, Subject1 had returned to the boat successfully. As Subject3 met up with Operator, Operator grabbed Subject3 to stay afloat however the pfd being worn by Subject3 was not sufficient to keep them both above water. 
  
  Operator let go of Subject3 and continued to struggle while he and Subject3 attempted to make it to shore. Subject2 and the child were able to make it to the shore successfully. 
  
  At some point during this struggle, Subject3 and Operator became separated and went below the water surface. A responding USCG vessel located Subject3 approximately 100 yards away floating just under the surface. It was reported that Subject3 was just below the surface laying on the pfd not properly being worn. Operator's body was located several days later by State Police divers.
  
  Both victims had been using drugs.
