River Search for Missing Girl Ends Tragically
A North Philadelphia teenager drowned in the Schuylkill late Thursday morning after she skipped school to go swimming with two friends.
Police Inspector Scott Small says passersby spotted 15-year-old Princess King, apparently in distress, just under the Strawberry Mansion bridge:
"At least two witnesses -- along with the two males the swimmer was with -- attempted to save her. However, she went out about 12 feet into the river and they were unable to save her. And she went under water and wasn't seen again. The boys fled.
