A Kirkland man in his 90s was found dead in Lake Washington Thursday.

Kirkland Police Sgt. Rob Saloum said the man's wife found his body near their waterfront home in the Juanita Bay area, where the man had reportedly been working near the water. A neighbor called police shortly before 7 a.m.

The man's death is under investigation, though police do not suspect foul play was involved.
