We now know the final autopsy results for Craig Meyers, the La Crosse student who drowned in the Mississippi River on February 14.

La Crosse County Medical Examiner John Steers says Meyers’ Blood Alcohol Content was at .192. That’s more than two times the legal driving limit. The results show that Meyers’ death was consistent with drowning.

Although Meyers’ death marks the ninth college-aged intoxicated man to drown in the Mississippi River, there have been a number of non-river drowning cases.

When Rick Juhl walks through Riverside Park during his lunch hour, he tends to think about the young men who have drowned in the Mississippi River.

"I start down at the far end, so when I walk past where the kid went through a couple weeks ago it bothers me that someone fell in the river just a few feet down the slope,” Juhl said.

It’s been about two weeks since 21-year-old Craig Meyers drowned in the Mississippi River.

"It’s a sadness that comes over you and wondering what happened. I wish someone could have helped him or found him," said Lynette Woodard, who walks through Riverside Park daily.

Meyers’ death marks the ninth drowning incident for a college-aged man in the last 13 years.

But La Crosse Police Captain Michael Brohmer says there have been more than twenty non-drowning incidents along the Mississippi River in the last three and a half years.

"The common link in almost all of them is heavy alcohol intoxication and that seems to be the theme in all the cases pretty much—there was a swimming incident that didn’t involve drinking," Captain Brohmer said.

In some cases, similar to Meyers’ incident, a single set of footprints led out to the river and onto the ice.

But in several of those cases they were able to pull themselves out of the River after they fell through the broken ice.

"They were able to get out and walk in one case to the Radisson Hotel and in one case to the nursing home to seek help. It was clearly evident they were alone," Brohmer said.

Captain Brohmer says the single set of footprints that led onto the ice and returned from the hole in the ice to the Radisson Hotel show that the person in each incident was alone.

Captain Brohmer says that kind of evidence leads them to believe that there is no serial killer.

"In other non-drowning incidents, the people involved say they were alone, nobody tried to harm them. Several were suicide attempts," Brohmer said.

Juhl says having security cameras along the River that link to the police dispatch center might be a good idea.

"Can the police get here in time to stop some youngster from wandering in the river? I don’t know," Juhl said. "But it would answer a lot of questions from the pessimists who think there’s somebody’s on the prowl down here trying to kill people.”

But one thing that is not in question is the fact that the community wants to stop any river-related incidents from happening again.

Captain Brohmer says people should have a strong buddy system when they go out drinking.

He says men tend to engage in a lot more singular behavior and a lot of time they get separated from their friends and go out on their own.
