The bodies of two young Pittsburgh men were pulled from a body of water in Mead Township, Warren County Tuesday evening.

Officials say Vincent Pitcher, 21, and his 19-year-old brother Stephen, both from Dormont, were on a camping trip at Kinzua Bay when they both drowned.

According to a family friend, the camping and fishing trip was an annual tradition for the family.

State police say Stephen jumped from a bridge and landed 75 feet into the water below.

Stephen's older brother, Vincent, then jumped in from the shoreline when he noticed his brother was hurt.

Officials say as Vincent was pulling his brother to shore, they both disappeared under the water.

Dive teams and rescuers from both Pennsylvania and New York were called out to help with the search.

Both graduated from Keystone Oaks High School.
