Man escapes near drowning at Park, urges caution

An Indiana man nearly drowned at Fall Creek Falls State Park over Memorial Day Weekend and is now warning others to be safe during the summer as many public parks remain closed, including all swimming pools at Tennessee’s state parks.

Nick Bokun told his story to The Chicago Post-Tribune, saying he is lucky to be alive after he took a swim at Cane Creek Falls inside of Fall Creek Falls State Park.
