Police are investigating after the U.S. Coast Guard reported finding a body in the Genesee River Monday morning near the Charlotte Pier.
The body was spotted about 8:30 a.m. by passing boaters, and the RPD is working with the Monroe County Medical Examiner to identify it. Police say it’s an adult male and it was unknown how long the victim was dead.
Later Monday afternoon a person walking by the Black Creek Boat Launch in Chili spotted a body floating face down in the creek near the Genesee River outlet. First responders tried to revive the man but were unsuccessful. That investigation is also ongoing, per the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.
