A man out playing Pokemon Go near Prince’s Island Park Friday afternoon, found something he wish he hadn’t.
He spotted a body floating in the Bow River near the Peace Bridge.
“It looked like it had a backpack on. You could tell it had bright running shoes and kind of a shaggy haircut. It kind of looked it like a t-shirt was pulled over its head,” the man told 660 NEWS.
“I was at the bottom of the rocks and it was maybe ten feet (away). I could have gotten in the water and probably touch it. That’s how close it eventually got,” he added.
Police have not said how the person died.
