The parents of two young girls and another father died of hypothermia after they plunged through the ice on an Arizona lake the day after Christmas, officials said.
The victims have been identified as Narayana Muddana, 49, his wife Haritha, and Gokul Mediset, 47, according to the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office.The families were all originally from India but lived in Chandler, a city southeast of Phoenix. By the time they had gotten out of the water and were able to get cell service to call first responders, it was too late.“Hypothermia sets in very quickly at that point,” Paxton said. “And if you’re not a swimmer it’s that much more difficult.”
