Boating accident leaves one dead - Cold Water - No Lifejackets
The United States Coast Guard is investigating a boating accident that left one man dead. It happened around 9:30 Sunday morning on Lake Michigan, about two miles west of Silver Beach.
The Coast Guard says 65-year-old James Territo of Carlton, Michigan died in that accident. He was riding on a boat with two other fishermen from Newport, Michigan when the boat capsized.......

The three people on the boat that capsized were not wearing life jackets, witnesses said. There were life jackets on the boat, though. The Coast Guard says this is an example of how important it is to wear floatation devices at all times.
