The body of a Glace Bay teenager has been recovered from Ingonish Harbour.

Drivers pulled out the body of 14-year-old Gregory Hibbs about 150 feet from where a boat sank on Saturday morning.

Hibbs was with four other teens in a wooden boat that took on water and overturned. The other teens made it safely back to shore.

An autopsy will be done in Halifax but police do not suspect foul play.
