COLCHESTER, Vt. (WCAX) – The man who went missing this week in Lake Champlain has been found dead.
Police say rescue crews have found the body of Cory Lavallee, who they say drowned on Wednesday.
They say the 37-year-old and his kids were on an inflatable boat with a small motor when Lavallee jumped in the water after one of his kids became distressed.
They say he got her back in the boat, but went under the water and didn’t come back up.
The children returned safely to shore.
