GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Police tell FOX 17 a body was found in the Grand River near Millennium Park Saturday afternoon.
A fisherman searching the shoreline for fishing lures and old soda cans discovered the body of a white man he said was not wearing pants. The fisherman told FOX 17 the body was just a few feet out into the water, face down. The discovery happened after 4 p.m. Saturday.
A dive team assisted police Saturday evening to help remove the body from the river.
FOX 17 also spoke with family members of Timothy Groenhout, a 39-year-old missing man from Grand Rapids, who were on scene as investigators worked to remove the body from the river. It is unclear if the victim is Groenhout.
