PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. —

State police and a coroner are investigating the death of a man whose body was pulled from a state-owned reservoir in Jefferson County.


State police in Punxsutawney say they were called to Cloe Lake about 8 p.m. Wednesday.


Police do not suspect foul play, but an autopsy was scheduled Thursday, and police have yet to say how they believe the man died.


Police and the county coroner were not releasing the man's name because his next of kin had yet to be notified.


A fire department rescue team helped police retrieve the man's body.
