Dive teams recovered the body of an 18-year-old high school student who didn't resurface after jumping into a New Jersey pond late Friday, officials say.
The teen, who has not been publicly identified, went underwater at Hardcastle Pond in New Milford around 7:15 p.m. to retrieve a soccer ball, according to reports.
A 911 caller alerted emergency officials once the 18-year-old did not come up. At its deepest points, the pond it 12-15 feet deep.
Rescue teams from around Bergen County responded to the pond and eventually retrieved a body around 10 p.m.
