Police say Ebbett was fishing alone and planned to meet up with a friend. His body was found near the small boat in shallow water.
He had a phone and a life vest.
“So he had all the essentials to make notification if there were issues, so you gotta wonder what was the trigger that set the course of actions,” said Williston Police Chief Patrick Foley. source
