A man has died after he apparently slipped and hit his head while on a boat and fell into the Potomac River, authorities said Tuesday..
D.C. fire department spokesman Pete Piringer said emergency workers were called to an area of the river about half a mile south of the Memorial Bridge on Monday night for a report of a person in the water. Piringer said that the man apparently fell while untethering his boat from another and fell in the water.
He was taken to a hospital where he later died.
Doesn’t it seem that we’ve had an awful lot of boating fatalities over the last couple of weeks? – Ed.
