ATWOOD LAKE DROWNINGS
IN EASTERN OHIO, A FAMILY TRAGEDY OVER THE WEEKEND CLAIMS TWO LIVES AT ATWOOD LAKE IN TUSCARAWAS COUNTY.
ON SATURDAY MORNING, A WOMAN DROVE A GOLF CART CARRYING HER THREE CHILDREN INTO ATWOOD LAKE. HER TEENAGE CHILDREN GOT OUT SAFELY, BUT WITNESSES SAY THE CRASH APPEARED INTENTIONAL AFTER SHE MADE SOME DISTURBING REMARKS. CREWS LATER RECOVERED A FOUR-YEAR-OLD NEAR A DOCK, AND THE NEXT MORNING THEY FOUND HER HUSBAND'S BODY IN THE WATER. INVESTIGATORS SAY THE 45-YEAR-OLD LIKELY DROWNED HIMSELF HOURS EARLIER, SAYING HE BELIEVED HE WAS ON A MISSION FROM GOD.
