BALTIMORE (WMAR) - The lifeless body of a young man was pulled out of the Inner Harbor early Sunday morning, fire officials said.

Chief Kevin Cartwright, spokesman for the Baltimore City Fire Department, said that a call came in around 3:30 a.m. for a report of a body in the water at 301 E. Pratt Street.

After searching for over thirty minutes a fire department dive team located the submerged body of a young man who appeared to be between fifteen and twenty years old,  Cartwright said.

The body was taken to the Medical Examiner’s Office for an autopsy. A cause of death has not been determined.

Police are investigating.
