Authorities have identified the man whose body was recovered Monday afternoon from Lake Catherine near Antioch as 52-year-old Robert Mozdynski of Mount Prospect.
Lake County Coroner's officials said an autopsy performed Tuesday morning indicates Mozdynski's death was consistent with drowning. Toxicology tests are pending, officials said.
Mozdynski went missing in Lake Catherine, on the north end of the Chain O' Lakes, about 3:50 p.m. Saturday after leaping from a pontoon boat operated by his son to go for a swim, authorities said. After briefly resurfacing, he disappeared into the 30-foot-deep lake. Sheriff's marine unit boats and area fire department boats were used to search the area Saturday and Sunday, but authorities could not locate Mozdynski's body until Monday afternoon.
