Her friends called 911 when she went under and didn’t resurface. Police divers later retrieved her body from about six feet of water. She had been underwater for almost 45 minutes at that time.

Krantz was rushed to a local hospital and pronounced dead there.

Deputy Fire Chief John Furno said the reservoir was dangerous at the time, though it looks calm and inviting. He told CBS Boston: “That area where she was, about 6 to 8 feet deep, the dive team tells me it was about 57 or 58 degrees. That’s cold, and you can cramp up. Things can happen when you’re in that water, and it can happen quickly.”
