(FREDERICKSBURG – WINA) An Orange County man was killed and two children were injured during a weekend accident on Lake Anna in Spotsylvania County. The Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries says 53-year-old Charles William Bowen fell out of a boat around 6:30 Saturday evening. Bowen was not wearing a life jacket, and his body was retrieved several hours later.

Two kids who were being towed on inner tubes suffered injuries, and transported to Mary Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg.

This marks the third consecutive Fourth-of-July weekend that someone has died at Lake Anna.
