St. Paul woman dies in water emergency at Lake Vermilion
A St. Paul woman on vacation died during a water emergency in St. Louis County, Minn.
The St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office received a 911 call at 5:55 p.m. Wednesday, reporting an 80-year-old woman had been found unresponsive in Lake Vermilion. Family members had started CPR.
First responders arrived at the scene on Blueberry Island and transported Marit Smaby-Nowlin back to land and then by ambulance to Cook Hospital.
“Life saving efforts at the scene and at the hospital were unsuccessful,” the sheriff’s office said in a Thursday statement.
Smaby-Nowlin was the daughter of a Minnesota legislator, Alpha Sunde Smaby, who served from 1965 to 1968.
