Police were called to the area of W. Jackson Street and Stringham Road around 1:05 a.m. Authorities say the body was found near the south riverbank at the bend of the river.

The body was found approximately three miles downriver from where a vehicle was pulled from the river on March 12. The vehicle crashed into the river on March 4. The man police believe was driving the vehicle, 31-year-old Cortez Lewis, is still missing. Police say they do not yet have enough information to connect the body found Sunday to that case.
