KAM RIVER DROWNING UNDER INVESTIGATION

A teenaged male drowned after falling into the swift-flowing Kam River, Thunder Bay Police said yesterday.

Officers were called at about 6:30 p.m. Monday to a location near Twin City Crossroads and Rosslyn Road where an 18-year-old had been fishing with a friend.

Police say the pair were returning home when one fell into the river and was carried downstream. City and provincial police officers found the male's body about an hour later.

He was pronounced dead at the scene. Police have not revealed his identity.
