CALDWELL -- The body of a 28-year-old Caldwell man has been recovered after he drowned in Lake Lowell on Memorial Day.
The Canyon County Sheriff's Office was called out to the Lower Dam swimming area at 5:38 p.m. after witnesses saw the man disappear under the water.
Sheriff's officials say Denny J. Denn swam out to a buoy, then went under as he attempted to swim back to shore. The Caldwell Fire Department and the Gem County Dive Team were called in to help search for Denn.
His body was found at 7:44 p.m., 20 yards offshore in about eight feet of water.
The drowning is under investigation.
The sheriff's office urged people to use caution around Lake Lowell and other waterways as temperatures heat up.
