MCSO believes they have found missing man at Lake Pleasant in Peoria

Man discovered dead, floating on lake

Posted

Law enforcement officers believe a man reported missing three weeks ago at Lake Pleasant in Peoria has been found, according to Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

They believe believe Glen Alan Keer was found dead at Lake Pleasant Regional Park.

Keer was reported missing from the lake Feb. 27. He was last in contact with his family the day before at 3:30 p.m. in the area.

MCSO recently received a report of a dead body floating in the area of Jackass Cove at the park.

Deputies responded by water and located a male floating face down along the shoreline. The body was not able to be positively identified due to heavy amounts of decomposition, however, it is believed this is Keer, as he is about the same height, weight, demographic, and is the only missing person at the lake, deputies say.

The unidentified male was taken to the medical examiner for further examination and positive identification.

During the search for Keer, MCSO used an array of search options. MCSO conducted above and below water searches, cadaver dog searches, as well as numerous helicopter searches.
