Game wardens and Bartow County Fire/Rescue responded this afternoon to the possible drowning in the Glade Marina area.

In a Sunday evening update, a spokesperson for the Georgia DNR identified the man as a 27-year-old who “exited off the back of a ski boat, went under and did not resurface.”

The search began immediately, and will continue tonight.

Vessels are searching with boat-mounted SONAR, and additional equipment and personnel have been brought in.
