Body of Missing Swimmer, 71, Found in Reservoir

The body of a 71-year-old man who was reported missing over the weekend has been found in a New Jersey reservoir, said authorities.

State Department of Environmental Protection spokesman Bob Considine said 71-year-old Koon Fung was found dead in the Round Valley Reservoir in Clinton early Monday. He said State Park police were notified of a missing person by the Toms River police on Sunday night.

Considine said the Toms River man apparently left his home to swim or wade in the reservoir.

An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday morning.
