Abdul Razak Shanun's body was spotted near San Diego's Mission Bay
during a search, San Diego Lifeguards said.
"It is believed that the kayaker was not wearing a life jacket,"
before he capsized, lifeguards said in a tweet.
Shanun had rented the kayak on Saturday, heading out on the west
side of Mission Bay where he capsized and drowned, authorities said.
It was unclear whether he had a life jacket in the kayak, and if so,
why he chose not to wear it.
The teen was an exchange student at Balboa City School, local media
reported.
