Kayaker Killed In Boat Accident Identified As Georgia Man
AZLE (AP) - A Georgia man has been identified as the kayaker who died after a Fourth of July night collision with a motor boat on a North Texas lake.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office says 53-year-old Craig Landoli of Roswell, Ga., died in Monday night's accident. Landoli's body was recovered Tuesday afternoon from Eagle Mountain Lake.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department says a man in another kayak suffered a broken leg in the accident in which three kayaks were struck while floating near a dock. Lieutenant Jennifer Kemp says two of the kayaks did not have required lighting.
The driver of the motor boat stopped to help after the accident.
