A 3-year-old Salt Lake City boy died Sunday in a boating accident at Echo State Park.
Walter Greer was boating with family members, according to a news release from the Division of State Parks, when he fell off the back of the craft and was struck by the propeller. Utah State Park rangers were called to the scene shortly before 4:45 p.m. and recovered the child’s body.
The boy was wearing a life jacket when he fell in the water, according to officials.
Echo State Park is near Coalville, about 50 miles northeast of Salt Lake City.
The death remains under investigation.
