Was looking for an update on another UID found in the Des Plaines River and came across this. (Probably) coincidentally, that UID was found in Lions Woods. This man was found in Lyons, IL. They are not near each other.

Article from May 18th:

"The body of a man pulled from the Des Plaines River near Hoffman Dam in west suburban Lyons Sunday morning remained unidentified Monday, and an autopsy to determine the cause of death was inconclusive, pending additional studies."

.....

"The body -- a fully-clothed white male -- appeared to have been in the water for an extended period of time, the release said. There was no identification on the body nor were there obvious signs of foul play or major trauma, the release said."

It talks about three bodies, this particular case in the end.
On Sunday morning, the body of a man was pulled from the Des Plaines River near Hoffman Dam in west suburban Lyons.

At 7:52 a.m., an off-duty Riverside firefighter called about a possible sighting of a body in the Des Plaines River near Hoffman Dam, according to Riverside Fire Dept. Chief Kevin Mulligan.

Riverside police and fire personnel responded and confirmed the sighting. The body was trapped for a short period in the "boil" at the base of the dam, but was eventually retrieved east of Barrypoint Bridge, a release from Riverside police said.

A man pulled from the Des Plaines River near the Barrypoint Road bridge last May has been identified as 27-year-old Grzegorz Tulicki, of Melrose Park. His death has been ruled a suicide, said Riverside Police Chief Thomas Weitzel, who was notified of the man's identification by an Illinois State Police investigator on Friday.

Tulicki was identified through fingerprint records, said Weitzel
...
Tulicki's body was spotted drifting downstream above the Hofmann Dam by an off-duty Riverside firefighter about 8 a.m. on Sunday, May 16. The body went over the dam and got caught in the "boil." Tulicki's body was eventually pulled from the river on the south bank, just east of the Barrypoint bridge.
