A downstate man lost his leg in a boating accident on a Gladwin County Lake. Deputies responded to the call from Pratt Lake in Sage Township just before two this morning. Passengers say Michael Doty of Grand Ledge jumped out of the boat while the engine propeller was moving. His right leg was severed below the knee. He’s now recovering at a hospital in Saginaw.
