A tip from an angler led authorities to a submerged pickup truck with a body inside in a lake northeast of the Twin Cities.
The Chisago County Sheriff's Office was called after a bass fisherman saw an anomaly on his graph in 10 feet of water near the Chisago/Lindstrom Lake public access off Stinson Avenue in Chisago City at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to a news release.
A GMC truck was recovered from the water and officers found the body of a male inside it.
He was not named but is connected to a missing person case out of Fridley, according to the release.
Officers do not believe foul play was involved.
Law enforcement and the Midwest Medical Examiner's Office are investigating.
