On Saturday, a 15-year-old boy encountered trouble in the water near Cowbury Reservoir, and his body was subsequently recovered. Authorities stated that his family has been notified, and a report will be submitted to the coroner. The incident comes as authorities continue to warn of the dangers of open water during the recent spell of hot weather, although the reservoir tragedy occurred several days after temperatures elsewhere in England peaked during the heatwave.
