Authorities say a 32-year-old St. Paul man has apparently drowned in Mankato.
The Blue Earth County Sheriff's Department says Teng Vue waded into a pool at Land of Memories Park that was connected to the Minnesota River on Friday evening, and apparently got stuck in a strong current.
His body was pulled from eight feet of water in an area between the Blue Earth River and the Minnesota River.
Blue Earth Sheriff's Lt. Tony Adams says family members told authorities Vue was not an experienced swimmer.
