The Norwich Police Department are still investigating and working on identifying the dead body recovered in Shetucket River off of Hamilton Avenue near its intersection with Palmer Street.

On July 22th, Norwich police responded to a 911 call reporting a dead body. Two citizens fishing in the area directed the Norwich Patrol Officers and members of the Norwich Fire Department to the floating body. Members of the Detective division and Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (O.C.M.E.) were requested to the scene and assisted in the investigation. No foul play is suspected at this time.
The deceased white male is described as: approximately 6 feet tall, around 200 pounds, approximately 45-60 years of age, brown eyes, medium length brown hair, and medium length brown/grey beard.

He was wearing tan/khaki cargo shorts, size 34 waist, and an olive colored plaid button down short sleeve shirt, size XL.

There's a guy missing from upstream, in MA, from earlier in the year when his kayak capsized, but the descriptions don't match.
