Sheriff’s divers searched for nearly 2 hours before locating the body. Amador County Undersheriff Jim Wegner said Amador Sheriff’s Office and other personnel responded to a report of an apparent drowning, first reported at 5:53 p.m. Frank Prado Junior, 21, of Galt, was wading in the water when he went under and disappeared. Wegner said Amador Sheriff’s personnel had a boat in the water and 4 divers searched in 2-person teams for Prado in the area where he was last seen, in North Shore Camanche Lake’s Day Use Area. Wegner said Prado’s body was located by a dive team just before 8 p.m. He said forensic testing will determine the cause of death, but the apparent cause was drowning.
