BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Police in Boise say the body of a 20-year-old man was found floating face down in a pond in the northeastern part of the city.

Witnesses say they had seen the man fishing at 10:30 p.m. Thursday. Family members went looking for him at 11 p.m., saw a body in Lake Harbor Pond and called 911.

Responding firefighters and police used a boat to reach the man, who was about 20 feet from shore, but were unable to revive him. Witnesses say the man had a history of seizures.

Boise Police continue to investigate. They say there was no evidence of foul play. The man's name hasn't been released.
