Body Found Near Port Albert Still A Mystery

The body of a man found on a beach north of Port Albert last Saturday afternoon has still not been identified.

OPP investigators are asking for more help from the public.

They are asking anyone who may have recently found an abandoned vessel or marine or sporting equipment along the Lake Huron shoreline to contact them.

Any findings of vessels, including, but not limited to: kayaks, canoes, fishing boats, sailboats, kiteboards, paddleboards, personal watercraft, inflatable rafts, dinghies and marine related items should be reported to police.

It's not known how long this man had been in the water prior to his death, but police say any findings over the last month should be reported to the Huron OPP Crime Unit.

When the man was found, he was wearing a 'FLUID' personal flotation device over top of a black fleece jacket, black wind pants with a 'P.E.P.' logo, and black and white NIKE running shoes.
