RACINE, Wis. — A 25-year-old man died at Quarry Lake Park in Racine, making this the second death at the park this summer, but it was not due to the popular but illegal cliff jumping.
The Racine County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to the park at about 1:30 p.m. for a man who was found in the water and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Family members told TMJ4's Tahleel Mohieldin that the victim had a history of seizure and this was likely the cause of his death.
He was fishing in a nearby river when he may have suffered from another stroke.
RCSO also said in a press release the death was believed to be due to a medical event.
The Racine Fire Department assisted RCSO at the scene.
