    Default Houston Texas


    Police chief falls overboard off a fishing boat and they haven't found him yet .
    WAS not wearing his life jacket . like SK says no mater how manly you are or what a fine swimmer you might be a life jacket might be the difference .
    thought I would bring attention to the news I saw on this today .
    a passing boat wake is what his wife said tossed him in according to the news .

    If he had all his official equipment on he would need two or three life jackets....just sayin' that mess is heavy...
    Hope they find him OK...

    That's some sad news right there. I can't imagine what his wife must be going through right now. My wife doesn't like me going out alone, but I still do it all the time. BUT, I do wear my auto inflatable 100% of the time. Most times I don't take it off til the boat is on the trailer and up in the lot. Prayers sent for the family.

    Thanks for posting Ketchn. The Kemah police chief fell overboard sometime Friday afternoon near the Texas City Dike. Last I heard, his body still has not been found. Sad deal. Everyone, wear your life jackets when you're on the water.
