LAS VEGAS (AP) - Park rangers say a 20-year-old man apparently drowned in the waters of Lake Mohave near Placer Cove.

Lake Mead National Recreation Area spokesman Randy Lavasseur says rescuers responded about 4 p.m. Wednesday after a man was
found underwater and pulled to shore by bystanders.

People at the scene tried CPR, and park rangers tried to revive him, but the man didn't survive.

He wasn't wearing a life jacket.

Rangers say they're investigating. The man hasn't yet been identified.
