(Berrien County, MI) - The identity of a man who drowned in Lake Michigan has been released.

 

The victim, 38-year-old Luis Sifuentes, was from Bensenville, Illinois, just outside of Chicago.

 

Police said he and two other men began struggling in the choppy water Sunday afternoon at Warren Dunes State Park near Sawyer, Michigan.

 

They were past the buoys.

 

One of the men was able to get to shore while another man was helped out of the water and taken to a local hospital. Sifuentes was found beneath the surface about 15 minutes later, and failed to respond to CPR.

 

Initially, the water was calm, but had waves of two to three feet at the time of the drowning.
