An 18-year-old man died Tuesday night, after he and a 14-year-old girl were pulled from Lake Michigan in northwest Indiana, police said.
Emergency crews responded to Porter Beach about 6:50 p.m. after it was reported the two needed to be rescued while swimming, Porter police said.
A good Samaritan was able to pull the girl to shore, but the man could not be found for about 20 minutes, police said. When he was pulled out of the water, first responders performed life-saving measures.RELATED: Chicago boy, 7, drowns in Lake Michigan near Portage, IN, had 'bright future,' mother saysThe 14 year old was also taken to a nearby hospital, where she is reportedly, "doing fine," police said.
