Orlando drowning latest in teen drownings this year
USA TODAY has reported several drownings as summer and warmer weather arrive this year, including a few recent cases involving teens.
On May 22, 17-year-old Alonzo Juan Juan, a high school senior in Coffeyville, Kansas, died from drowning just hours after graduating.
Two South Carolina teens were found dead in suspected drownings last week after they were challenged with a dare to jump into a lake over the weekend. Authorities confirmed Rayan Al-Nasser, 16, and Zakaria Chaar, 15, were found late Monday morning in 15 feet of water and about eight feet apart, per The Greenville News, part of USA TODAY Network.
In another incident, one teenager and two young adults died after swimming in the Caloosahatchee River near the Franklin Lock in Alva, Florida. The three who drowned on May 18 were identified as Santos Tiul-Chen, 17; Victor Pedro-Gaspar, 19, and Pedro Miguel Pascual, 21.
The drownings happened when two of the drowning victims attempted to rescue the first victim, the sheriff's office said in an emailed statement to the Fort Myers News-Press, part of the USA TODAY Network.
