UPDATE (7-18-18): Daytona Beach Police Department has identified the body as 19-year-old Raiquan Roscoe of Daytona Beach.

Earlier reporting below.

Daytona Beach, FL - A body is found floating in a pond at an apartment complex.

Daytona Beach police responded to that call at the Wedgewood apartment complex on 1717 Mason Avenue around 7:30 this morning.

According to the report the body was found by a woman who was taking her son to the bus stop for daycare when she noticed the body in the pond near building 900.

No foul play is suspected and officers believe they know who the man is.

Police say it could be a resident who lived with their mother in that apartment complex and suffered from mental health issues.

It's said he went missing Sunday but the mother did not report it because it was apparently not unusual for him to take off.
