The United States Coast Guard has recovered the body of a 57-year-old man who apparently drowned in Lake Erie near Edgewater Park late Friday night.
Around 11:52 p.m., officials say they received a call that an unknown male was "seen in distress" in the lake when the park was supposed to be closed. Local, state, and federal crews conducted a search, and eventually discovered Anthony Pucek in the lake around 1 a.m. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The incident remains under investigation, although Cleveland Metroparks Rangers say they do not suspect foul play.
