A man drowned on Three Mile Lake after he went for a walk in Muskoka Lakes, Ont., and didn’t return home over the weekend.

On Saturday at about 8:15 a.m., the man’s family noticed that he had been missing for some time and went searching for him, according to Bracebridge OPP Const. Samantha Bigley

The man’s family couldn’t find him, which led to police responding to the incident just after 9 a.m. that same day, Bigley said.
