Search teams looking for a missing diver off the Florida coast recovered the lifeless body of a different man, the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office said.
Teams were combing the waters after a West Palm Beach resident went missing Sunday while freediving when they discovered the body of a man believed to be around 50 years old.
"The body does not appear to have been in the water for an extended period of time," the sheriff's office said in a Facebook statement on Monday.
The clothing and physical appearance of the unidentified man did not match that of the missing diver, authorities said.
The body was found about 16 miles northeast of the Fort Pierce Inlet. An investigation remains ongoing to determine how and when the man died.
