Body pulled from Lake Michigan near 31st Street Beach, Chicago police say
CHICAGO — A body was recovered from Lake Michigan at 31st Street Beach Sunday afternoon, Chicago police say. Police say the CPD Marine Unit pulled the male victim from the water around 12:45 p.m. The person was pronounced dead on the scene. This comes days after a boat capsized, leaving one boater missing and three others hospitalized, but police cannot confirm the body is the missing boater. Officials say they are waiting for identification from the medical examiner's office.
CBS News Chicago's Shardaa Gray was alongside the family Sunday as they were waiting for answers and made a startling discovery—a body in the water. 'This is just so overwhelming,' a distressed Leslie Jackson-Tobin said as she waited by the scene of the crash for word about her husband. 'I just feel like something needs to be done. Like, why isn't anybody here?' The boat was still in the water.
