WAYNE, Maine (AP) — Maine game wardens are investigating the death of a man found in his motorboat on Pocasset Lake in Wayne.

Authorities say a lake resident spotted what appeared to be an abandoned boat floating near the shore on Saturday morning. Game wardens say the boat contained the body of 33-year-old Christopher Brown of Wayne. They say the boat appeared to have contacted rocks just under the water surface.

Brown was last seen leaving a nearby gathering with friends late Friday evening.
