Three people were killed this past week at Georgia's Lake Lanier, authorities said, adding to the more than 200 people who have died at the man-made lake since 1994.

On Saturday, a 61-year-old man was found in 46-feet of water in Lake Lanier after swimming from a boat “when he went down and did not resurface,” the Georgia Department of Natural Resources said in a statement sent to USA TODAY Monday.

The Georgia DNR identified the man as Tracey Stewart.

That evening, a 27-year-old man was swimming from a boat when he went under and did not resurface, the Georgia DNR said. The search is ongoing.
