Man dies in apparent drowning in Ammonoosuc River in N.H.
Foul play doesn’t appear to be a factor, police said.
A 31-year-old man apparently drowned Sunday in the Ammonoosuc River in Bethlehem, N.H., police said.
The man, who authorities have not identified pending family notification, was found unconscious by a relative who recovered him from the river and performed CPR, New Hampshire State Police said in a statement.
State Police’s Marine Patrol and Bethlehem police and fire departments responded to a call of a possible drowning at the river at 12:40 p.m.
The man was ultimately pronounced dead. Police said an autopsy is scheduled for Monday.
Foul play doesn’t appear to be a factor, police said.
Police are asking that anyone who witnessed or has information on the incident to call 603-227-2113.
Bethlehem sits more than 130 miles north of Seabrook, N.H., where one person died after several swimmers were rescued from a rip current around the same time.
