A 22-year-old Omaha man has been charged with manslaughter for the death of a woman in a boating accident near Fremont.

Saunders County Attorney Scott Tingelhoff says Sean Salisbury is scheduled to be arraigned on Nov. 13.

Tingelhoff says Salisbury was driving a boat at Woodcliff Lakes south of Fremont when the accident occurred on July 9. The Saunders County Sheriff's Office says Salisbury got too close to the docks, so he turned sharply. The tube he was towing swung into a boat that was on a lift at the docks.

Authorities say 21-year-old Kayla Linn, of Omaha, was on the tube. She was pronounced dead at a Fremont hospital.

A phone listing for Salisbury couldn't be found. Online court records don't list the name of his attorney.
