Tragedy on Overseas Work Programme


The body of Okeen Andre Rashawn Daley, 22, Jamaica, was discovered in a White County lake early this morning.

According to White County Sheriff Pat Shafer, Daley’s body was found this morning at about 2 a.m. in Lake Shafer. He had been missing in the lake since about 7 p.m. Wednesday, when he swam away from a pontoon boat into a deeper part of the lake.

After hours of searching, divers from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources using sonar found Daley in about six feet of water.

He was pronounced dead at the scene by the White County coroner.

Daley was with 12 friends, all of whom work at Indiana Beach Amusement Park, on the pontoon boat.
Shafer said neither foul play nor alcohol were suspected in the death.

This is a terribly tragedy. It is understood that Okeen was on an Overseas Work Programme and a student of the University of Technology. Condolences to the family and friends of Okeen Andre Rashawn Daley…..R.I.P.!!
