Body of 14-year-old boy found a week after he goes missing

Searchers have recovered the body of a 14-year-old boy presumed drowned in the Oldman River in Lethbridge.

Two kayakers found a body in the river just north of the Lethbridge city limits at around 7:30 Friday night.

The boy’s body will be sent to the medical examiner’s office in Calgary for identification and police will continue to investigate pending the results of an autopsy.

The boy had been missing since falling into the river on July 6 while walking with a friend and the friend’s grandmother.

Foul play is not suspected.
