Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) says a Toronto-area man who was missing in Gravenhurst, Ont. has drowned in Lake Muskoka.
Provincial police and emergency services were called to an address on Muskoka Road 169 near Glen Echo Road just before 11:30 a.m. Sunday about a possible drowning on the lake.
Police say a man who was visiting the area took a kayak out onto Lake Muskoka near Taylor Island. He encountered difficulties, which caused him to fall into the water, and he failed to resurface.
An OPP spokesperson tells CityNews that the Bracebridge OPP marine unit, along with the OPP Underwater Search and Recovery Unit, located the 31-year-old man’s body in the water.
