According to the investigation, the two boys had come to play in the water together when they slipped and fell into the deep section. Both were unable to swim, and they disappeared before their friends and nearby residents. Good Samaritans immediately attempted to search for and retrieve their bodies from the water, providing first aid and performing CPR to try to save their lives, but their efforts were unsuccessful.
