...Woman drowned trying to rescue turtle from Lake Lanier...

According to the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office, Marines Dillon, lost her balance and fell into the water from the dock of her Hope Road home.

Her husband tried to rescue her, but neither knew how to swim. Dillon, 59, was pronounced dead at Northside Hospital.

“...and the cry of the turtle was heard throughout

Her husband tried to rescue her, but neither knew how to swim.

Later reports said that the turtle also drowned because it didn't know how to swim, either.
