Second Teen In Big Blue River Dam Accident Dies

Last updated on Tuesday, June 10, 2014

(EDINBURGH) - A second student has died after trying to save a teenage girl from being swept away by the Big Blue River in Edinburgh.

16-year-old Michael Chadbourne died yesterday afternoon.

This death is making some parents louder about putting signs up, warning potential swimmers to stay out of the dangerous waters near the dam.

Counselors will be on hand today at Franklin High School to help students dealing with the loss of another classmate.
