LAKE HAVASU CITY, Ariz. (AP) - Mohave County authorities say divers have recovered the body of a Lake Havasu City man who may have swam out into Lake Havasu to recover his remote-controlled boat after it possibly crashed.

The Sheriff's Office says divers found 59-year-old Edward Young's body in about 10 feet (3 meters) of water and about 75 feet (23 meters) from the shore of Thompson Bay on Saturday after deputies responded to a report about a missing person.

The office said Young had been operating the boat at Patrick Tinnell Memorial Sports Park and had not been heard from since.
