Crews recovered a body from the New Jersey pond where, just a day prior, a man went missing while paddleboarding, according to the town’s mayor.

The Morales family had been anxiously waiting for any news for nearly a day, and did not get he miracle they were hoping for. The family told NBC New York that the 24-year-old screamed goodbye to his brother as he slipped under the murky water a day ago.
