RedactedNarrative: Officers were dispatched to Pistakee Lake for call of possible drowning. The victim exited a power boat offshore to swim when he went missing. Other occupants of vessel were unable to locate him and called for rescue. The victim surfaced approximately forty five minutes after he went missing. The victim was taken on board a rescue boat where he was found to be unresponsive. He was transported to McHenry Centegra Hospital where he was pronounced dead. The boat the victim departed had drifted into the pier at the location where it should have been tied off. The occupants of the vessel said the three had been out on the boat on Fox Chain of Lakes numerous times and that the victim could swim. They stated the victim had consumed several drinks earlier when they were at a bar for lunch. They stated he may have had a problem with alcohol and had received several DUI citation in the past. 
  
  The victim shut off the motor to the boat so they could all go swimming. The victim entered the water to swim, one occupant realized he jumped in with his wallet so he returned to the vessel immediately, and the third occupant was not a good swimmer so he held onto the ladder at the back of the boat as he entered the water. Both occupants said they were talking to one another and the victim was swimming about 90 feet or so from the boat the last time they saw him. The occupant in the water holding onto the ladder was the first to notice the victim going under water and not surfacing. He called to the other occupant to start the boat to go to the area to assist the victim but it was too late. The victim had gone under and disappeared from sight. 
  
  The autopsy revealed the cause of death as drowning and noted the victim had high levels of alcohol in his blood and urine.
