The body of the subject of a search for a possible drowning victim on Monday night came to a conclusion at around 10:45 on Tuesday morning. That’s about 45 minutes after the search resumed near the last reported location of the person observed calling for help in the Sheboygan River near Rotary Riverview Park, shortly after 7 p.m. on Monday.
The Sheboygan Fire Department, aided by the Sheboygan county Dive Team, Sheboygan Police, Wisconsin DNR, US Coast Guard – Sheboygan, and the Sheboygan County Sheriff’s Department, located the subject with a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) about 12 feet below the surface. Sheboygan County Divers were sent in to recover the body, identified as 25-year-old Lee Lor of Sheboygan. Mr. Lor’s body was turned over to the Sheboygan County Coroner.
