Officials in Ohio have located and retrieved the body of a diver who went missing in Lake Erie on June 1, according to the United States Coast Guard Great Lakes.
The diver, identified as David Michael Vanzandt, had been exploring a shipwreck at the lake’s bottom, as reported by WEWS. After being underwater for more than two hours, emergency services were alerted.
Search and rescue teams, dispatched by the Coast Guard, conducted their search approximately six miles off the coast of Cleveland. Several hours later, Vanzandt’s body was recovered.
While the Coast Guard initially reported his age as 72, subsequent information from news outlets and the medical examiner confirmed he was 70 years old. The cause of death has not been disclosed
