A kindergarten student from Richmond drowned Monday while fishing with her grandfather at Lake Anna.
The mother of the child was on a cruise when the child, while spending time with the grandfather, fell into the lake. Divers marked off search spots with sonar and rescue crews dragged the lake’s surface looking for the young girl’s body and soon found it.
“At 4:40, the child was located by rescue divers,” said Maj. Donnie Lowe with the Louisa County Sheriff’s Office. “There was a very powerful current and if you fall in the water, it creates a super undertow and can send even the best of swimmers straight to the bottom.”
