DIAMOND LAKE (WKZO) — We are just learning of an incident on a Cass County lake that appears to have claimed a life, but they won’t know for certain until his body is found.
Deputies say 46-year-old Kurt DeYoung of Cassopolis left Park Shore Marina in his pontoon boat on Diamond Lake last Wednesday to fish.
No one apparently reported he might be missing until the boat drifted up on shore unoccupied on Saturday.
They believe from the evidence on board that DeYoung was working on the motor trying to get it restarted when he may have fallen overboard.
They searched the lake over the weekend, but he could be anywhere in the water.
