LAKEWOOD, Colo. — The body of a missing 67-year-old kayaker was found and recovered from Bowles Reservoir in Jefferson County on Wednesday afternoon.
The Lakewood Police Department and West Metro Fire Rescue responded to the reservoir, which is near Marston Lake, on Tuesday after receiving a report of a missing person. When they arrived at the scene, they learned a resident was missing and a boat had been found overturned in the water. Denver 7+ Colorado News Latest Headlines | October 18, 4pm Authorities began searching for the man and after several hours, the rescue became a recovery effort.
WMFR called it a"challenging operation" since nobody saw the man go into the water so there was no"last seen" point. Bowles Reservoir is 30 feet deep and encompasses 134 acres. Windy conditions pushed the overturned kayak away from where the man potentially went in, WMFR added.He has not yet been identified. The Follow UpWhat do you want Denver7 to follow up on?
