Divers have found the body of a paddleboarder who went missing in the water off Martha's Vineyard - that backs on to Barack Obama's sprawling $12million estate.
The 43-year-old vanished on Sunday evening while he was out with another paddleboarder on Edgartown Great Pond, Massachusetts, and emergency crews were dispatched to Obama's residence.
Witnesses told cops the man went underwater and then briefly reappeared as he struggled to stay afloat, before submerging again around 7.46pm.
A massive joint-agency search resumed Monday morning for the African American male who was last seen wearing all black without a lifejacket, MV Times reported.
His paddle board and hat were recovered Sunday - and his body was found in the eight-foot-deep waters approximately 100 feet away from shore at 10am Monday.
The dispatch address for the incident came from Obama's Martha's waterfront Vineyard home. It is unclear if the former president, 61, is currently staying at the estate.

This report probably triggers a lot of blacks, perpetuating the stereotype of not knowing how to swim or some such.
It’s obviously racist of them to point out his color and not being able to swim in the headline.
It never occurred to me that I might drown.
Maybe it was “Jaws” pulling him under.
No matter what really happened here, we’ll never get the truth from the media. Remember the massive cover up of the Paul Pelosi story.
How old is Big Mike?
Son of Fuddy.
Edgartwon Great Pond = Potomoc
Scores are being settled.
“I’m wondering how the Secret Service let him get so close…”
Might have been one of Obunga’s butt buddies.
LOVE! K ow his AGE but not his NAME??
Trump’s fault!!!!
Barack’s boyfriend?
The ONLY place this will be covered is in a British online news agency. No way will an American news organization touch this.
Passed acquaintance of the foster son of “Fuddy” (from a previous life)
There, fixed.
Its not like he really earned the money anyhow.
HAs anyone seen Barry since last night?
Let me guess. Reginald L. Love? Born April 29, 1991.
Strange delay in releasing the name of the victim. Just saying.
I’m sure the press just forgot to ask.
4ft of water, 1/8 mile from shore is all it took in the case of his foster mom.
So know it’s “paddleboarder”, you know I just can’t keep up with the latest LBGQTXYZMOUSE community’s euphemisms ...
