Man drowns after paddle boat capsizes in Arlington Heights: police

The capsize happened at Lake Terramere in the northwest suburb.

A man died after falling from a paddle boat Monday in northwest suburban Arlington Heights.

The capsize happened about 3:30 p.m. and sent the 44-year-old, another adult and two young children into Lake Terramere, Arlington Heights police said in a statement.

Paramedics were called to the 4000 block of North Terramere Drive and found everyone already out of the water, police said. Citizens were performing CPR on the man.

The Huntley resident was taken to Northwest Community Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said. The Cook County medical examiner’s office has not released details about the death.

The children and other adult did not require medical treatment, police said. Investigators did not suspect criminal activity or foul play.

“This appears to be a tragic accident,” police said in a statement.
