Police Recover Body of Missing Boater Off Maryland

Boat capsized during derecho

Police found the body of a man who disappeared after a boat capsized off southern Maryland in last week's thunderstorms.

Maryland Natural Resources Police on Sunday evening recovered the body of 26-year-old Angel Cerros in the Chesapeake Bay, off Chesapeake Beach in Calvert County.

He died after thunderstorms moved through the area late Friday, police said. The storm capsized a boat carrying five people, including Cerros. A fishing boat crew and the Coast Guard rescued the other four early Saturday.

Cerros was from Alexandria, Va.
