Phil Johnson considers himself pretty knowledgeable about Lake Lanier, but he had never before seen what he saw Monday night. Johnson and his friend, David Bryant, were the first people to come to the aid of boaters involved in a boating accident shortly after 10:30 p.m. Monday. The accident killed 9-year-old Jake Prince and left his 13-year-old brother Griffin missing somewhere in Lake Lanier.
