Body on beach had 2 left thumbs

The body, clad in a white shirt, gray necktie and dark trousers, bore no identification when discovered Thursday morning on a private beach in the 500 block of North Sheridan Road, authorities said.
After an autopsy on Friday, the Cook County medical examiner's office ruled that the man had drowned. The office was unable to determine whether the drowning was accidental, a spokesman said.
