LUSBY, MD. — Those who are unaware of the swift currents in the Chesapeake Bay at Cove Point Lighthouse should take note of the fact that three people have drowned at that location in one week. Daniel Jason Brown and his brother, Douglas Brown Jr. died on July 27th when both men were caught in the currents of the Bay and drowned. Daniel’s body was recovered the day he died while his brother’s body was found two days later.
The 6:40 p.m. accidental flash fire was determined to be the result of a spark from electrical connections at the onboard bilge pump while gasoline vapors were still present in the engine compartment.
