Crews were called to the Dry Brooks Day Use Area, where the body of Ernesto Feliz, 27, of New York City, was recovered from the water Sunday, July 24, the outlet says.

Officials told WFMZ the man was going after a ball in the lake when he swam too far out and never made it back to shore.

The news comes nearly two months after 20-year-old Albert Castro Beato drowned after going for a swim in Blue Marsh Lake, authorities said.
