Discovered body could be missing swimmer

Windsor police are looking for help identifying a male body pulled out of the Detroit River.

Police said the body was found at Lakeview Park Marina near Riverside Drive and Riverdale Avenue just before noon on Monday. Investigators believe its the body of a male swimmer who needed help and went missing Friday evening in the channel near Peche Island. A search of the area was done but had to be called off because of a storm moving in.

The deceased man is described as approximately 5'9" tall, 170 pounds, 35-40 years old, with olive/brown skin tone, a medium build, dark shoulder-length hair, a full dark beard, and was wearing a large "Denim And Flower" brand short-sleeve button-down shirt, dark coloured jeans, size 10 black and brown Nike high-top shoes, and a necklace with a "Buddha" pendant.
