Six Dead After Boat Capsizes During Storm in South Lake Tahoe

LAKE TAHOE, CALIFORNIA, JUN 21 – The boat capsized amid sudden 30-35 mph winds and 6-10 foot waves, leading to a 12-hour search covering 390 square miles before being suspended, officials said.

  • A boat capsized Saturday near D.L. Bliss State Park in South Lake Tahoe, resulting in six deaths, two injuries, and two missing individuals.
  • The incident occurred amid high waves up to eight feet and strong northwest winds reaching 30 knots, which reportedly caused the 27-foot vessel to capsize.
  • Multiple reports of approximately 10 individuals in the water near an overturned boat prompted a coordinated rescue response involving local emergency teams and the Coast Guard.
  • Rescuers saved two individuals who were hospitalized, while search and rescue teams recovered six bodies and continue looking for two others, with operations planned to resume the following morning.
  • Officials will release the identities of the deceased after notifying next of kin, and authorities describe the situation as ongoing with future updates expected.
