The bodies of two people who went missing at a New Jersey lake Monday afternoon have since been recovered.
Authorities in Winslow Township, New Jersey conducted a search after they say two adults were reported missing after they went swimming in a lake.Search and rescue crews worked the banks of the quarry, known as Penbryn Lake through Monday afternoon. Law enforcement on the scene tell FOX 29's Steve Keeley the swimmers, two adult males, went missing shortly before 3 p.m. Winslow Deputy Police Chief O’Rourke told Keeley the first 911 call came in at 2:45 p.m.
Just 24 miles from Philadelphia, Penbryn Lake has become a popular spot to kayak and fish and sadly police say it is a deadly spot to swim. Despite the faded no swimming signs, two men went in and went under the water at around 2:30 p.m. When they never resurfaced, those with them called 911 and a massive search effort began soon after and ended three hours later when the bodies of both men were recovered.
