VCU Captain Marty Sellers said investigators with the multiagency unit and the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office responded Sunday to the 13000 block of Lake Arnedra Drive on the report of a male floating in the lake.

Sellers said deputies found a 65-year-old man floating in the water after being seen in the early morning hours going outside of his residence on the small lake.

"It is unknown what led up to the male ending up in the lake," Sellers said. "There was no evidence of foul play. As there is nothing to indicate that a criminal act resulted in the victim’s death, the victim’s information will not be released."
