Edwin Lee Mason Dies After Ocean Accident In Atlantic City
September 19 2008
Edwin Lee Mason died at 8:55 am Wednesday morning from what Atlantic City authorities say was “complications of near drowning”. The 13 year old Camden boy was rescued with older brother Eric Cannon, also from Camden.
The two went for a swim in the rough ocean after 7:00 pm when there were no lifeguards on duty anymore at the New Jersey Avenue Beach in Atlantic City. The older brother Eric Cannon is in stable condition at the childrens Hospital.
The two boys were transported to the hospital after being pulled out by Police officers from the rough current waters. Atlantic City Police will continue to investigate the drowning but as of no consider it an accident. Police said both boys were struggling trying to return to the beach.
