DARIEN, N.Y. (WIVB) - A Pennsylvania man's body was pulled from a lake in Genesee County Saturday night.
33 year old William Sutherland went to Darien Lake Friday night with some friends to attend the Toby Keith concert.
After the concert, he got separated from his friends.
They went looking for Sutherland but drove back to Pennsylvania without him.
Saturday, they returned to the park and that's when the sheriff's office launched their search.
"Couldn't locate him so they left and went back to Pennsylvania and came back because they haven't heard from him yet. So they came back to continue their search. The investigation led us to Sunshine Lake, which is a small pond of water between two parking lots for the amusement park area. We did find the body in the pond," said Sergeant Gregory Walker.
Scuba divers pulled Sutherland's body from the water.
The sheriff's office says the incident does not appear suspicious.
They're now awaiting autopsy results.
