A 37-year-old Vancouver man was reported missing after he went kayaking at Diamond Lake on Tuesday, according to the Douglas County Sheriff's Office. At around 10:20 p.m., 911 dispatchers received reports of a man yelling for help from the water at Diamond Lake. The sheriff's office said no one was able to see the man, but reported it sounded like he was in distress. Shortly after the initial 911 calls, dispatchers received a missing persons report at Diamond Lake. The sheriff's office said Jared Bruce Boria, of Vancouver, was camping at Diamond Lake Campground when he put his kayak in the water and paddled into the lake. The sheriff's office said Boria was not wearing a life jacket when he went kayaking. An initial search was conducted by Marine and Timber Deputies, Douglas County Fire District #2 and Diamond Lake First Responders, however they were unable to locate Boria or his kayak.
