Body Of Missing Swimmer Found In Milford Quarry
MILFORD (CBS) – Dive crews have recovered the body of a swimmer who went missing at a quarry in Milford on Sunday.
Authorities say 18-year-old Nentor Dahn of Providence, Rhode Island was with friends and family when he disappeared.
Fletcher Quarry is a popular swimming spot for teens who come from all over.
Witnesses say Dahn appeared to hit the water awkwardly after jumping off a cliff. He never resurfaced.
First responders were called to the quarry at around 12:30 p.m. Sunday. Dive teams worked until 7 p.m. when the lack of light forced them to stop. The man's body was found Monday morning in 70 feet of water.
Searchers used sonar to find Dahn's body.
