STURGEON BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Door County sheriff's officials say remains discovered by a group of divers in Lake Michigan could be a diver who disappeared in 1999.

Sheriff Terry Vogel says the divers found the remains over the weekend near Whitefish Bay in about 225 feet of water. WLUK-TV (http://tinyurl.com/9xf4s98 ) reports the name of the diver is not being released until the identity is confirmed.
