CONROE, Texas — An investigation is underway after a woman fell off a boat and drowned in Lake Conroe on the Fourth of July, according to the Montgomery County Pct. 1 Constable's Office.
Officials said this happened around 9 p.m. just north of FM 1097 near Scott's Ridge Boat Ramp.
The woman reportedly fell off the boat and several people jumped in after her but were unable to find her.
It took officials about two hours to locate the woman's body.
"Upon our arrival to the scene, we were able to find two of the males that had jumped overboard to save her," said Montgomery County Pct. 1 Lake Patrol Cpt. Rosario. "At that point, we began looking for two females. One female had gotten off to help find her. We did locate her about an hour later, safe on a dock."
The woman who drowned had not been identified as of Friday morning.
Officials said two men were arrested for boating while intoxicated at the scene.
