The body of an 15-year-old boy from Illinois was found in Lake Michigan in Lake County, Indiana Saturday afternoon.
First responders were called to Miller Beach at Lakeshore Drive and Sullivan Street for a missing person believed to be in the water around 2:55 p.m.
Multiple agencies with dive teams responded to the scene to search. They also used a helicopter. Search efforts were hampered due to a north wind, with three to six-foot waves creating dangerous rip currents in the area.
