The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says a Quinton man has drowned in Skiatook Lake.

The OHP report indicates 30-year-old Nicolas William Birckel drowned in the lake Friday afternoon. The patrol initially reported that the drowning occurred Saturday.

An OHP report says Birckel jumped from a boat to swim, then went under water and did not resurface.

His body was recovered Saturday morning in about 25 feet of water.
