CPW conducting sonar search after possible drowning reported at Lake Pueblo State Park
Colorado Parks and Wildlife is conducting a search and rescue operation after a possible drowning was reported at Lake Pueblo State Park's south fishing area. An initial call came in at 7:10 p.m. Thursday, according to Dean Miller, spokesperson for CPW's southeast region. Park boat patrol teams were on the scene Thursday night conducting a grid search with sonar, Miller said. CPW's marine evidence team was also on the scene with additional sonar and an underwater drone. "We will continue an active search as long as it takes," Miller said. If a drowning is confirmed, it will be the fourth at the lake in just over a month. The last was Daniel Duane Strawn, who was found at Rock Creek Cove floating unconscious on the afternoon of June 7. He was pronounced dead on the scene despite life-saving efforts. Prior to that, Derrick Lee Vigil, 28, drowned when his fishing boat capsized at Lake Pueblo on May 30, and Manuel DeJesus Villanueva Miranda, 53, died May 14 after he went into the lake to help his two children and their friends as they struggled to swim in rough waters. None of the latter three victims were wearing life jackets at the time of their apparent drownings, according to CPW. Wear a life jacket. Put a whistle on your jacket so you can call for help. Be aware of your surroundings — the water gets deep quickly. Be aware of the weather, high winds and storms can come up fast. Check your boat and all required boating safety gear. Avoid boating alone and tell someone where you are going and when you will return. Boat sober. Alcohol use is the leading contributing factor in recreational boating deaths. Know that stand-up paddleboards are considered vessels in Colorado and require a life jacket on board at all times. Protect yourself from the dangers of cold water immersion and shock. Regardless of your age or experience level, cold water can quickly create a drowning emergency.

Browns Shedeur Sanders Ticketed For Driving 101 MPH
Browns Shedeur Sanders Ticketed For Driving 101 MPH originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Shedeur Sanders' offseason had put together an impressive offseason to this point. Despite entering a crowded quarterbacks room with the Cleveland Browns, the fifth-round rookie showed his determination to move up the ranks. Advertisement His work has come mostly with second-teamers though leaving a positive impression on his coaches nonetheless. Up until Tuesday the dialogue seemed to turn a corner. However, a reckless decision now has fans questioning his true intentions of succeeding on the professional stage. Police pulled over and ticketed Sanders for allegedly driving over 100mph, according to FOX 8 in Cleveland. The incident occurred in Strongsville, a suburb in the Cleveland area. Strongsville police records show that an officer stopped Sanders on 71 North around 12:24 a.m. on Tuesday. The report indicates Sanders was clocked at a speed of 101 mph, 41 mph over the limit. Advertisement The station reached out to the Browns who have yet to comment on the matter. Sanders can either pay the fine that comes with the citation or contest it in court. While there is no serious criminal offense here the mistake is poorly timed on Sanders part now finally removed from the hysteria of a historic draft slide. Once a potential No. 1 overall pick, Sanders plummeted down the draft board until Cleveland selected him in the fifth round. Much of slide had to do with Sanders' handling of the pre-draft process and the impression he left on prospective teams. While speeding isn't a felony crime, it does add fuel to the fiery narrative that suggested Shedeur was "arrogant" and "entitled." It's certainly not a career-ender for Sanders by any means. But for an already polarizing player, Sanders gave his team and their fans additional reason to question his prospects as a starting quarterback. Advertisement He is the one shouldered with making up ground in this quarterback competition and may have set himself back in the eyes of the coaching staff after this mistake.
