43-year-old man dead after being pulled from Diversey Harbor Wednesday morning
A 43-year-old man died Wednesday morning after apparently drowning in Diversey Harbor, authorities said, although his official cause of death had not yet been determined.
The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the man as Luis Alberto Davila Vera, of the 1000 block of West 15th Street. An autopsy was expected to be performed Thursday to determine cause and manner of death.Vera slipped and fell into the water with several other people at the Lincoln Park harbor at 5:02 a.m. Wednesday — but he didn’t resurface, according to Chicago police.
Vera was taken via ambulance to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 5:54 a.m., police said.. Also this week, a day before Vera’s death, officials in Whiting, Indiana, recovered the body of a Chicago man who had been missing for two weeksDexter Trendell Sain, 36, was found about 200 yards offshore near the Whiting Lakefront Park. Sain drowned, according to the Lake County coroner’s office, which performed a forensic autopsy Wednesday.
Sain and Curtis Herron, also 36, had been missing since the morning of July 27, when they took out a new boat on Lake Michigan. Family members said the pair likely wanted to give the 30-foot Bayliner, named Cindy Ann, a test run as the longtime friends from Chicago had very little boating experience.
