The body of a man was pulled from a community lake in Avondale on Saturday afternoon, authorities said.

The Avondale Police Department identified the victim as 35-year-old Jorge Aguilar on Sunday afternoon and determined his cause of death was a drowning.

Officers were called to the area of 107th Avenue and Indian School Road around 1:30 p.m. Saturday after a caller found what they said was a dead person in a lake, police said.

There were no signs of injury, and the investigation is ongoing.
