A body was reportedly found floating in the St. Clair River by two fishermen Tuesday.

The partially clothed and decomposed body was recovered in the middle channel of the river in Clay Township, according to the St. Clair County Sheriff's Department. The body is unidentifiable as male or female, according to the department.

The Sheriff's Department said it appeared as though the body had surfaced after a significant time submerged in the river.

An autopsy is scheduled to be performed by the St. Clair County medical examiner.

The Sheriff's Department detective bureau is investigating the case.

I worked Security on the BobLo boats (worked both of them) the last 3 years they ran. Was my second year and we all were joking about bodies in the Detroit River when I looked over and there was one floating face down. Had been shot in the head about 3 days before and apparently dumped. Never found out anything more. Needless to say, we were late for the Island arrival.

This was found yesterday afternoon. No one is on the missing persons list. more to known after the autopsy which I think is today.

Did they at least determine the sex?

 

[Dookie]

Does anybody know if a body needs to weighted down to remain submerged that long?
With no missing persons report, my first morbid thought was cement boots
