Apparent Drowning in Pool at Springs House

A 22-year-old man died in an apparent drowning in Springs late Sunday. Brett Friedberg's body was pulled from the pool at 117 Waterhole Road in the Clearwater neighborhood, East Hampton Town Police Capt. Chris Anderson said Monday morning. People at the house called 911 shortly after 11 p.m., after finding him floating in water, he said. A Springs Fire Department ambulance transported him to Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Mr. Friedberg, who is from Port Washington, had been staying at the house with acquaintances, according to Captain Anderson. He had last been seen about 30 minutes before he was found, the police captain said. There was a large group of people at the house. There was nothing to indicate foul play and there were no obvious signs that Mr. Friedberg had hit his head, Captain Anderson said, but the investigation is continuing.
