On 05/07/2023 at approximately 1:31 PM Kenosha County Deputies and Somers Fire/Rescue personnel responded to the 2000 block of Sheridan Road for a possible drowning. Initial reports from deputies on the scene were that an adult male was swimming in the Pike River and began to struggle. A child that was with the man left to get help. The man’s brother and another adult male came down and jumped into the water to save him. As the struggling swimmer was pulled to shore the brother who had jumped in to save him went under and did not resurface.

The KSD Drone Unit also responded to the scene and searched the river using a remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV). At about 2:49 PM the man was located under the water by Somers Rescue personnel unconscious and not breathing. He was identified as Adrian Sanchez-Trujillo, a 39-year-old male from Kenosha, WI. Adrian was transported to Froedtert South Pleasant Prairie Hospital where he was pronounced deceased by the Kenosha County Medical Examiner’s Office.
