A man whose nude body was found floating in Tims Ford Lake Sunday morning died of an accidental drowning, according to an autopsy. He was identified as Mark A. Dye of Shelbyville. A fisherman found the body on Tims Ford off of Highway 130 near the Bell Acres Subdivision in Winchester and notified authorities. “We sent the body to the State Medical Examiner’s Office for an autopsy,” Sgt.
