Drowning Connected To Baptism

The drowning death of a South Carolina teen is being connected to a baptism.

The Lee County sheriff's office says an 18-year-old disappeared while swimming at Lee State Park in the Bishopville area Sunday. The coroner's office reported yesterday that the teen was one of several people who were involved in a baptism at a small pond at the park.

The family reportedly stayed at the park after the baptism, when the teen swam back into the water and disappeared.
