PHOENIX – Authorities say the body of a jet skier who went missing after crashing into a boat at Saguaro Lake has been recovered.

The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office says the body of 21-year-old Joshua Slade was recovered on Monday morning. Deputies say Slade turned in front of a fishing boat before the two collided on Saturday night.

Slade was then submerged after being thrown from the jet ski and was not seen again.

A friend who was near the collision told MCSO deputies that Slade wasn't wearing a flotation device while riding the jet ski.
