Police say 49-year-old David Campbell of Carrollton, Texas, died Thursday when his raft capsized in the Arkansas River.
Campbell was a volunteer with the Rocky Mountain Boy Scouts High Adventure Base at Poncha Springs. His raft capsized in a class 3 rapid.
Published reports say Boy Scout officials say Campbell went unconscious after being pulled out of the river, and that resuscitation efforts failed.
The death was the third rafting related fatality on the Arkansas River this week. Jimmy Nakama, 40, of Littleton, and Thomas Spicknall, 36, of Centennial, drowned Tuesday after they were thrown from a private raft in the Pine Creek Rapids section.
