A 49-year-old man has drowned in a west-central Minnesota lake, authorities said.
A distraught caller to 911 notified the Douglas County Sheriff's Office late Tuesday afternoon that Brian W. Carlson was submerged in Lake Burgen, located roughly 4 miles southeast of Alexandria.
A county dive team recovered the Alexandria man's body about 50 feet from shore and in 10 feet of water, the Sheriff's Office said.
