Man's body recovered from Lake Ann in Chanhassen

An investigation is underway after authorities pulled the body of a deceased man from a Twin Cities lake Saturday night.

The Carver County Sheriff's Office says that at approximately 7:20 p.m., it received reports that a man who was kayaking had gone underwater on Lake Ann in Chanhassen and had not resurfaced.

Lake Ann Park closed while a search was conducted for the man.

Just before 10 p.m., members of the Carver County Dive Team recovered the man's body. The sheriff's office said a "brief but severe storm" in the area delayed recovery efforts, but did not contribute to the man entering the water.

On Monday, the sheriff's office identified the man as 36-year-old Earnest Corderia Claiborn of Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
