Six teenagers drowned in Louisiana’s Red River Monday, and a seventh teen, 14, was saved. They were playing in a shallow area where the bottom drops away suddenly to a 20-foot chasm, and though adults were around, no one knew how to swim. Only one lifejacket was nearby. The victims were between the ages of 13 and 18, and it took more than three hours for rescuers to pull out their bodies.
