Tragic Accident Claims Life of California TV Producer on Rope Swing
Kathryn Hoedt, a 23-year-old TV news producer for KCRA, died after falling 30 feet from a rope swing at Folsom Lake in California. Witnesses say she fell onto rocks along the shoreline and was transported to a nearby hospital where she was pronounced dead. Hoedt was described as a bright light and one of the nicest people by her colleagues. Rope swings are not allowed at the lake, and park officials advise against using them due to their potential danger.
