UPDATE 9:58 a.m. June 20 – A third body was recovered Monday morning from Lake Lavon.

MCKINNEY (WBAP/KLIF) – Two men are dead, and another is missing, after a boating accident over the weekend in Collin County.

According to the Collin County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded Saturday night to a boater in distress near Brockdale Park on Lake Lavon. A strong storm crossed Lake Lavon causing a small boat occupied by four men to overturn. One man was able to hold onto a tree and call 911, according to the Sheriff’s Office. Game Wardens on the water rescued the mean and learned that the remaining three men had disappeared.

Two of the men have since been recovered.

Collin County Sheriff’s Office, Wylie FD, Princeton FD and Game Warden are continuing their work as they search for the remaining man who is presumed drowned.
