LAC DU BONNET – The body of one of two boys believed to have been swept into fast-moving rapids in a Manitoba lake last weekend has been recovered.
RCMP in Lac du Bonnet say they received a report on Wednesday evening of a body near the shore on Nutimik Lake, and they later confirmed it was 10-year-old Maximo Au Ramirez.
Police say the boy’s family has been notified, and the search continues for the remaining boy, who is 13.
Police were called to the possible drowning Saturday afternoon near Sturgeon Falls Trail in Whiteshell Provincial Park.
They have said it’s believed one boy slipped on rocks and fell into the water, but it wasn’t clear if the other boy jumped in to help or also fell.
RCMP have said the boys were related.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 22, 2026.
