The last picture': A passing boater's photograph may be the 5 adults who drowned in Ohio - MyNorthwest.com

“The last picture” also comes from reporting that a passing boater’s photograph may document the final moments of five adults who drowned in Ohio’s Scioto River. Marcus L. Martin, a frequent boater who knew the area well from about a decade of trips, told The Associated Press that he saw five adults wading in waist- and hip-deep water. He said he had previously warned people at that exact spot because of steep slopes and a quick drop-off into the river. After watching the group still in the water about two hours later, Martin returned and took a photo. Delaware County Sheriff Jeffrey Balzer said authorities believe one adult started struggling to swim, and the others went to help.
