Body Of Missing Man Found

CULVER, Ind. (WOWO):  A body of a missing person in Marshall County has been found. 

Indiana Conservation Officers spent Friday night searching for 28 year old Jose Cruz Lizcano-Fernandez of Logansport.  He was last seen swimming in Lake Maxinkuckee at the Culver Public Beach.  Officers used a “side scan sonar” to help find the man.  Around 9:30 p.m. officers announced they found his body 15 feet outside of the swim area in about 5 feet of water.

Family members say Jose was missing for about 4 to 5 hours before they noticed he was gone.  

Conservation Officers say it's important to swim with a buddy and wearing a life jacket, and use caution when playing around the water during this holiday weekend.
