Indian rock claims another soul. When will people learn?

People will never learn. The town needs to post BIG signs everywhere along that stretch in different languages. There and Jamestown.

Really sad stuff.

Poor guy. Doesn't seem like he was in a good place.

News is recovery mission.

Apparently 2 teenager girls saw him swimming off the rocks yesterday.

Well its just a matter of using your head . Not a place to fish when the surf is slightly up...

This sounds more deliberate then an accident?

Probably sucked into the underwater cavern, if so he never had a chance.
Dropped off by a cab, leaving ID and some clothes onshore, definitely a deliberate choice.
RIP

Left hotel in warwick, took cab right to hazard ave. This was no accident.

It truly sucks no one close to tbe dude saw the signs.

Not that suicide is EVER an option, but this would definitely NOT be the way to do it.

On the same note, a Local man set fire to himself and perished recently....another sad tragedy...:(

Drowning is supposedly not an unpleasant way to check out, although at this time of the year, hypothermia would kill you first.

Sad indeed. Today's ProJo reported the body washed up on a Jerusalem beach.

DD J/B ???

That would mean the body floated or he swam ?? south for miles .then in the east gap up the channel & landed on the west shore in the pond . seems like to be way off or at the very least a very long distance in a short period of time ????

In 2007 a couple fell in along the blackpoint stretch while watching the noreaster waves. 3 days later, if i remember correctly, one of the bodies was recovered near the great island bridge. Seems like thats where they get carried to.
Always a bummer to hear. That stretch has claimed so many lives in one way or another, an it will continue to do so unfortunately.

[QUOTE=ivanputski;1094017]In 2007 a couple fell in along the blackpoint stretch

I remember that like it was yesterday. Fishing that stretch was eerie as the couples' friends and family kept a vigil for several nights until both individuals were recovered.

Clammer, I was equally surprised to hear about the discovery of the body that far removed from Hazard Ave.
