OGLESBY, Ill. (AP) — A Chicago man apparently drowned as he tried to swim across the Illinois River near Starved Rock State Park over the weekend.
The (LaSalle) News-Tribune (http://bit.ly/1usUaFP ) reported Monday that 22-year-old Angel L. Barreto was swimming in the river Saturday night when witnesses said he went under about 30 yards from shore. His body was recovered the next morning.
