Man arrested after alleged attempt to drown fiancée in Lake Worth Beach motel pool

LAKE WORTH BEACH, Fla. (CBS12) — An Ormond Beach man has been arrested for allegedly attempting to drown his fiancée at a Lake Worth Beach motel, following a confrontation about infidelity.

The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office (PBSO) reported that deputies were called to the Capri Motel in Lake Worth Beach following reports of a possible drowning on Saturday at 4:58 p.m.

Upon arrival, deputies reported finding two men standing outside the pool area, including Drew Williams.

According to the probable cause affidavit, when deputies questioned Williams, 45, about a possible drowning, he denied any knowledge and claimed he didn't know the victim's whereabouts.

However, a search of the property led deputies to Williams's fiancée, who they said appeared highly emotional and claimed that he had tried to kill her.

PBSO has arrested Williams and he faces attempted homicide and domestic battery.
