A South Carolina man has drowned after falling from a dock into a lake.

PICKENS, S.C. (AP) -- Multiple media outlets reported that 65-year-old Arnold Arthur Walker of Easley died Saturday.

An autopsy was expected Monday.

Authorities say Walker went to Lake Hartwell with someone to talk, but fell into the water while trying to sit on the dock. A friend pulled Walker to shore, but he did not recover.

The Pickens County Sheriff's Office is investigating.
