HEAVENER, Okla. (AP) _ Funeral services are held for a 17 year-old Heavener student who died in a swimming accident.

Services were held at 2 pm Saturday at the Heavener First Baptist Church for Cody Barlow.

The teenager died Wednesday after attempting to dive off Holsom Creek Bridge near Summerfield.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says Barlow struck the water headfirst and resurfaced before going back under after the 25-foot dive. His body was recovered two hours later in about 25 to 30 feet of water.
