A person died in Lake Cumberland after a boating accident on Saturday, according to Russell County Search and Rescue.

Chase Fischer, 18, and Cole Fischer, 14, died in a jet ski crash south of Woodson Bend boat ramp.

A Kentucky community is mourning the loss of two teenage brothers who died in an accident Friday on Lake Cumberland.

The brothers who lived in Villa Hills in Kenton County were riding a jet ski when the crash happened.

When on scene, one person had escaped the water but someone else was still in the car.

“We don't want people out there being part of activities like that,” a health official said.

"All of our rentals and our campground is still good," said Fred Piercy, co-owner of the resort. "All of that will continue on."

That's led to optimism that it will be a good year for tourism.
