WASHBURN, N.D. (AP) - A 10-year-old girl has died and another has been injured in a weekend accident on a lake in McLean County.

Sheriff’s officials say the victim along with another 10-year-old girl were on an inner tube that was being pulled by a boat on Strawberry Lake Saturday.

Their inner tube was struck by an uncontrolled Jet Ski whose operator had been thrown from the watercraft a short time earlier.
