On Halloween 2026, Anthony Beringer, 59, and his wife Cindy Bowers, 68, drowned while kayaking in the lower Salt River in Arizona. Deputies received a report around 1:30 p.m. of Beringer yelling that his wife "couldn't swim," after their inflatable kayak capsized. Neither was wearing a life jacket. Bowers' body was recovered shortly after 2 p.m., while Beringer's body was found upstream about 45 minutes later by search crews. The incident remains under investigation, with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office warning people to stay away from the river due to dangerous currents caused by Salt River Project releasing more water than usual in response to heavy rainfall.
