With Louisiana serving as Sportsman’s Paradise, it is not uncommon throughout the year to hear reports about leisure boaters and fishermen drowning while on the water. Summer is certainly no exception when it comes to these tragedies. Just last month, a toddler died at Lake Arthur beach while swimming with family.
The topic of drowning usually involves small children, who can be quick to escape a distracted adult or get lost in a crowded pool. Many of these accidents involve a child who cannot swim falling or climbing into a pool or body of water.
