AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Five boats sank in a
Texas lake during a nautical parade in support of President Donald Trump as
tightly packed boats created large waves, officials said Sunday.
Boaters began calling for help “almost
immediately” after the procession for trump’s reelection got underway on a lake
west of Austin on Saturday, according to Kristen Dark of the Travis County
Sheriff’s Office. Deputies ultimately responded to 15 distress calls and
received three other reports of boats taking on water. No one was injured or
killed.
