Teen Drowns in Cedar River at Power House Park

(Fullerton, Neb) — A tragic drowning occurred Thursday afternoon, July 10, 2025, at Power House Park in Fullerton, prompting a swift response from the Nance County Sheriff’s Office, Fullerton Volunteer Fire Department, and Fullerton Volunteer Rescue Squad.

According to witness accounts, two teenagers were swimming in the Cedar River near the low head dam when a 15-year-old girl was pulled under by a strong current. Emergency personnel located the victim trapped in the turbulent waters downstream of the dam and immediately began life-saving measures, including CPR.

The teen was transported by ambulance to Merrick County Medical Center, where she was later pronounced deceased.

In accordance with department policy, the victim’s identity will not be released for at least 24 hours.

Sheriff Bakewell offered his deepest condolences to the victim’s family and praised the professionalism and coordinated efforts of all first responders involved in the response to the tragic incident.
