Angler Drowned
Harold Wilson of Home Acres, near Pittsburg, was reported drowned by Leroy Bass of Pittsburg, his companion on a fishing excursion in Suisun Bay. According to Bass, Wilson fell overboard from their small boat just after making a cast. Bass reported to Constable Milton Talbert of Collinsville that he dove several times in search of his friend, but was unable to find him.
Searching parties were sent out from Pittsburg and Collinsville seeking Wilson?s body. It was believed that the man may have drowned when he became entangled in reeds at the bottom of the bay.
