Wisconsin Prosecutor's Body Identified After Michigan Crash

ST. IGNACE, Mich. (AP) - Authorities have confirmed the identity of a body found last week in Lake Huron in northern Michigan.

Ronald Dague, a Milwaukee-area prosecutor, died in a plane crash on Aug. 31. The Mackinac County sheriff says dental records helped confirm the identity.

The 64-year-old Dague was an assistant district attorney in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, for 26 years. He was the only person aboard a single-engine plane that crashed after departing St. Ignace for Mackinac Island.
