A tragic fishing trip in Dallas turned fatal when 6-year-old Noah Carlos fell into the water, and his father, Fernando Carlos, 26, jumped in to save him. Both were swept underwater by the strong current of a Texas lake. The family was on a fishing trip when the incident occurred, turning what was supposed to be a pleasant day into a tragedy, according to a GoFundMe set up by the family. Despite efforts by the boy’s uncle to rescue them, the current was too powerful and the pair were washed away. Dallas Fire-Rescue responded to the scene, but the bodies were not recovered until hours later. Fernando’s body was found on Saturday, while Noah’s was discovered the following day. The boy, who enjoyed dancing, playing Fortnite, and listening to music, was described as silly and handsome. His father was remembered as an amazing dad, brother, son, and uncle who died a hero trying to save his son. The family is devastated by the loss of Noah and Fernando, and the community has come together to support them through the GoFundMe. The tragic accident serves as a reminder of the dangers of natural bodies of water and the importance of water safety for families and children.
