Drowning Victim Recovered In Netarts Bay

(Netarts, OR) -- The body of a 54-year-old man from New Mexico who drowned in Netarts Bay has been recovered. Last Thursday, a man and a woman were clamming on a sand bar when the tide came in and they tried to swim to shore. The woman made it, but when she looked for the man she couldn't find him. The water was neck-deep and he was wearing waders. On Saturday, people crabbing in the bay called 911 to report finding a deceased man in the water. Tillamook County Sheriff's deputies responded and located the man. They determined it was the same man who went missing two days earlier. He was still wearing the waders.
