Storm-Tossed Geneva Lake boat capsizes, claiming three young lives

Three children aged 6, 7, and 10 died when a boat capsized on Geneva Lake during a Friday storm; seven people were rescued, including the boat operator. The operator, a 47-year-old with boating experience, tried to seek refuge as large waves broke over the bow. The vessel sank in 32 feet of water with the three child victims inside; the preliminary cause of death is freshwater drowning. Winds were reported at 90–100 mph by the National Weather Service, and the investigation is ongoing.
