A man from Lakewood has died -- 12 hours after his body was pulled from Harry Wright Lake.

According to police, Santos Chacon-Hernandez was swimming across the lake with two other men, when all three became too tired to keep swimming.

Lakegoers nearby helped the two men to shore, but Chacon-Hernandez drowned.

Whiting firefighters and rescuers pulled him to the surface and tried to resuscitate him, but he did not survive.
