Peachtree Corners man identified as Sunday drowning victim on Lanier

The teen aged man who drowned in Lake Lanier in South Hall County Sunday has been identified.

Hall County Sheriff's Sgt. Stephen Wilbanks said Stephen Fredericks, 19, of Peachtree Corners was the victim.

Sunday, witnesses called for help after Frederick jumped off a two-story dock at a Bass Circle location and did not resurface. 

Hall County Fire Capt. Zach Brackett said previously their dive crews located Frederick in the water after about one hour of dive operations.

Wilbanks said Frederick's body was transported to the DeKalb County Medical Examiner's Office for an autopsy.

Foul play is not suspected.
