(UPDATE 2:33pm) According to Captain Jeff Wilson of the St Joseph Police Department two youngsters fishing at Corby Pond snagged some clothing on their fishing lines. The juveniles called police at approximately 1pm. Shortly after 2pm, crews pulled a body from the pond.
Captain Wilson tells Nadia Thacker there is no way to know at this time how long the body had been in the water. Captain Wilson says it appears to be the body of a white male in his mid-40s. They have not yet identified the body. An autopsy is planned as the investigation continues.
Crews from the St Joseph Fire Department, Buchanan County EMS, and the St Joseph Police Department are on the scene. They are not letting anyone into the area, which is standard procedure.
Northeast and Northwest Parkway are blocked off at the 22nd Street bridge as well as just north and east of the pond.
