Body recovered from Quesnel Lake

QUESNEL LAKE— Williams Lake Search and Rescue has recovered the body of a missing boater this morning.

BC RCMP S/Sgt. Janelle Shoihet says just after 7 p.m. last night, frontline officers from the Williams Lake RCMP were called to Quesnel Lake after receiving a report that a man had gone out on the lake in a boat, and some time later the boat was seen circling with no one on board.

She says Williams Lake Search and Rescue were called to assist in the search for a 48-year-old Quesnel man.
