It happened just after 7:00 p.m.
Trumbull police said 38-year-old William Krahe was transported to Saint Vincent’s Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
Police and firefighters located Krahe underwater and brought him to shore.
Krahe had been at the lake with family members and was swimming near a floating dock anchored a short distance from the shoreline beach when he went under the water and did not surface, according to police.
