Man, 22, Drowns While Swimming By South Jersey Industrial Park

LOGAN TOWNSHIP, NJ ? A man drowned while swimming with friends Tuesday at a body of water in a Gloucester County industrial park.

Police identified the man as a 22-year-old from Swedesboro. His name has not been released.

The man went swimming with friends on Crossroads Boulevard near Creekview Avenue in Logan Township. He struggled to stay above water before going under and never resurfacing, police said.

Authorities reported to the scene at around 6:20 p.m. Tuesday. About 90 minutes later, dive teams recovered the man's body from a basin.

He was pronounced dead shortly after.

The incident remains under investigation, but there were no initial signs of foul play, police said.

It happened on a block of industrial warehouses that overlook Raccoon Creek, with basins located near the buildings.

This marks at least the second time in the past month that a person died in the water in Gloucester County. A few weeks ago, a contractor fell off an embankment while working on a residential property along Big Timber Creek in Westville. He was found dead in the creek later that night.
