The SEG Seefeld and SEG Grafrath as well as the DLRG Possenhofen were on the way. The approaching rescuers were able to turn back when the lifeless body of the 63-year-old was discovered in the water by the helicopter, which was also alarmed. The missing person drifted about 80 meters from the bank in three meters depth in the buoy field in front of the Buch district of Inningen.Divers from the Schondorf water rescue service rescued the man from the water around 11 a.m. and tried to revive the man from Munich - unfortunately unsuccessfully, according to Siegfried Dumbsky, head of operations at the Landsberg district water rescue service.
