SALISBURY, Vt. (AP) Four children and an adult are safe after being rescued by a game warden when the motor on their boat failed on Vermont’s Lake Dunmore in Salisbury, the Department of Fish and Wildlife said.
Game Warden Wesley Butler found the group, which included a toddler, adrift about 2 a.m. on Monday and towed them off the lake.
The boaters intended to watch Fourth of July fireworks when the motor failed.
Butler received a call just after midnight advising that the Burlington U.S. Coast Guard station had been alerted to a disabled vessel on Lake Dunmore.

LEICESTER Jozef Callum Sloma, age 21, left behind his Gretsch and other guitars, beloved friends and family, and classic vehicles to go on to other adventures.
Early this year, Joe traveled from Spokane, Wash., to reestablish his residency in Leicester, Vt., to attend a Criminology & Restorative Justice program at Northern Vermont University. Friends, family, and acquaintances share a deep loss of this wonderful individual who lived life fully, gave freely and, accomplished so much in the time he spent on this planet. We remain inspired by Joe’s artistic unconventionality and contagious enthusiasm.
One of Joe’s social media sites states simply that he loved “coffee, Kerouac, Johnny Cash and camping; in that order.” Joe jammed at the Spokane Fall Folk Festival, was photographed in the center of a student crowd protesting gun violence, played Harry Bailey in a 2019 “It’s a Wonderful Life”
