Justin Lamb
(Deceased)

Sunday, May 4, 2015. PATRICK E. JONES Reporting: The body of 18 year old Justin Lamb has been recovered from the Belize River in Ontario village.

Lamb and some friends had gone to the river to swim on Labour Day when he reportedly went under the water and did not resurface.

His family was informed of the incident around 3:30 pm on Labour Day and despite a frantic search on Thursday and on Friday, it was not until early on Saturday morning that Lamb’s body was found.

According to reports, family members who had gone back out on the Belize River to search for him, found the body near Warrie Head, about a quarter of a mile away from where he was last seen by his friends.

A family member says that a post mortem examination on the body of Justin Lamb did not find any indication of foul play and confirmed that he died of drowning.

Justin Lamb has been laid to rest.
