The crew of a fishing vessel found a dead man floating Saturday evening a mile offshore of Cape Cross on Yakobi Island, Alaska State Troopers said.
Wildlife troopers from Juneau on a routine patrol in the area recovered the body.
The body is that of an older white man, but initial identification could not be made, troopers said. It was transported to the State Medical Examiner's Office in Anchorage.
An investigation continues. Anyone with information can call troopers at 907-465-4000.
