Authorities identify body found in Waukegan swimming pool

Officials have identified the frozen body of a teenager discovered this week in a backyard pool in Waukegan.

Lake County Coroner Howard Cooper said Wednesday the body is that of Lucio Cambray, an 18-year-old from Waukegan.

Waukegan police Cmdr. Joe Florip said investigators had been searching for Cambray, who was reported missing to police on Christmas or the day after. The teen's body was discovered early Monday morning in a swimming pool behind the house on the 1300 block of North Jackson Street, Florip said.

He would not comment on details of the investigation.

Cooper said an autopsy is scheduled for Friday.

"We will release preliminary autopsy results as soon as we are able," Cooper said. "Notification was made to his family last night, and our deepest condolences go out to them. This is an awful tragedy for his family and the community."

This is the second time in two months the Jackson Street house has been associated with a death investigation. The house was involved in a Dec. 4 fire that trapped 18-year-old resident Alonda Caballero Negron. Firefighters pulled her from the house, but she suffered smoke inhalation and died Dec. 10.

Florip said police see no connection between the deaths at this time. "We are running them as two separate investigations," he said.
