THE body of a man was recovered from Loch Lomond yesterday evening.

The death is being treated as "unexplained".

Police were called to Loch Lomond Shores, near Balloch, at around 5.30pm on Thursday.

A spokeswoman for Police Scotland added: "Enquiries are ongoing to establish the exact cause of his death which at this time police are treating as unexplained.

"A report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal."

A witness told the Reporter: "When I cycled past the Shores in the evening the entrance area had been blocked off by police.

"There were loads of people out on the water on boats and jet skis earlier that day when I passed. It's so sad."
