Divers recover body at Indian Lake

Associated Press

O'CONNOR POINT, Ohio – Divers have recovered a man's body from a western Ohio lake.

Divers responded Sunday evening after a witness said a man in a small kayak or canoe went into the water and did not resurface at Indian Lake, about 60 miles northwest of Columbus. WCMH-TV in Columbus reports the 29-year-old man is presumed to have drowned.

A spokeswoman for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources said the death of the unidentified man is under investigation, but she didn't have details about what happened.

The recreational lake area in Logan County includes state campgrounds.
