ASHTABULA, Ohio — ASHTABULA, Ohio (AP) - Ohio's Department of Natural Resources says the search continues for the body of a man who died when a boat he was on capsized in Lake Erie.
The department said Monday that four people were on the boat when it began taking on water and capsized shortly after 9:30 a.m. Saturday near Conneaut (KAW'-nee-awt) in northeast Ohio's Ashtabula County. Department officials say someone on a commercial fishing vessel rescued the other three boaters.
The department identified the man who died as 58-year-old Raymond Burns of Plum Borough.
