Rescue crews pulled the body of a man from the Occoquan River about 9:30 p.m. Thursday. They started CPR but it was already too late.
Police have identified last night’s drowning victim only as an adult male. His body was pulled from the water at the Belmont Bay marina in Woodbridge. It appears to be an accident, stated Prince William police spokesman Jonathan Perok in an e-mail.
A police investigation is ongoing and we expect to get more details as the day progresses.
The Belmont Bay marina sits in a neighborhood that shares the same name, behind the Woodbridge Virginia Railway Express station off U.S. 1. The neighborhood overlooks the Occoquan River, at the point where it meets the Belmont Bay.
