The Indiana Department of Natural Resources confirmed that the 13-year-old boy's body was found roughly 11 feet underwater at around 7:45 a.m. this morning, June 24. He was found by a diver near the east side of the Michigan City lighthouse pier, near the rocks.

DNR officials say the child died by drowning, and no foul play is suspected.

The incident happened around 5:45 p.m. CST Monday June 22.  Investigators say the teenager went into the water with a group of friends at Washington Park Beach. The victim began struggling in the water; his friends unsuccessfully tried to help him. Officials believe he was pulled under by a rip current.

Officials say the area of the beach where this happened is typically guarded, but lifeguards were off duty for the day at that time.

DNR officials say that, at the time of the incident, there was a 20 mile-per-hour wind. A beach hazard statement and a small craft advisory were in effect from the National Weather Service.

Multiple divers were injured during the search due to conditions on the water.

No additional details will be released at this time.
