Death of 90-year-old woman pulled from Lake Daylesford 'not suspicious'

The discovery of an elderly woman's body in Lake Daylesford this morning is not being treated as suspicious. 

Authorities were called to the popular lake, north-west of Melbourne, just after 8am today after a passer-by found the body.

Police said the body of the 90-year-old woman was found near the bridge at Bleakley Street, near the Boathouse Daylesford restaurant.

An investigation was launched but police have since deemed the death to be not suspicious. 

Police said the woman had a history of depression.
