SULLIVAN, MADISON CO. (AP) -- Authorities say the man found dead in a Central New York lake accidentally drowned.

The Madison County Sheriff's Office tells local media they've identified the man as 61-year-old George Stampp of Bridgeport.

His body was found by two people heading out for a boat ride around 6:30 p.m. Tuesday about 100 feet from Oneida Lake's southeastern shore in the town of Sullivan, 10 miles northeast of Syracuse.

They say relatives last reported seeing Stampp on Monday night.

An autopsy determined he drowned and there was no sign of foul play.
