A Carmichael man is identified as the kayaker who died Friday after being pulled from the water in Bodega Bay.
Officials say 45-year-old Jacob Rajaniemi’s exact cause of death and how long he had been in the water are under investigation. The U.S. Coast Guard said Rajaniemi was found around 10 a.m. after a passerby spotted his kayak upside down near the head of the Bodega Bay channel.
Authorities said he appeared to be alone and had been crabbing in the area.
