Police said the third person who jumped in was the only one wearing a life jacket. He was later rescued by the coast guard and was okay.
Police said last week that no foul play was suspected and they do not believe alcohol was a factor; it was simply because of the dangerous water conditions. They ask everyone to pay attention to forecasts before heading out into Lake Michigan.
