Body Of Lake Elsinore Drowning Victim Recovered, ID'd As LA Man

LAKE ELSINORE, CA — The body of a Los Angeles man who drowned after going into the water at Lake Elsinore has been recovered.

The body of Cadmiel Ahsad McAdoo, 38, was discovered Tuesday around 3 p.m. by the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department’s Dive Team.

McAdoo was on the lake Sunday, but shortly before 6:30 p.m. he got off his jet ski and went into the water to retrieve a lost item.

Once in the lake, he appeared to be in distress, went underwater and never resurfaced, witnesses told Lake Elsinore Boat Patrol deputies. Sheriff's Sgt. Deanna Pecoraro said she could not confirm whether McAdoo was wearing a life vest when he went into the water.

A search was conducted, but the man's body was not found until Tuesday.

According to the sheriff's department, the incident occurred in the northeast area of the lake.
