Missing Angler Found

The body of a Wisconsin man has been pulled from a lake in Minnesota's Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.

Emergency personnel recovered by the body of 23-year-old Ty Sitter from 90 feet of water in Swan Lake, north of Grand Marie.

Sitter disappeared June 9 when he left his family campsite to go fishing.

Meantime, the body of an 80-year-old Minnesota man has been recovered by a provincial police dive team in Nipigon.

Ronald Lee Hilsen was reported missing last Thursday after failing to return from a fishing trip on Lake Superior.

Divers found his body not far from where he had been fishing.
