The body of a man was found floating today in the Schuylkill south of the Grays Ferry Bridge.

A fisherman discovered the remains about 11:50 a.m., police said.

Marine units were sent to recover the body.

There is nothing to indicate that the body is that of an 18-year-old man who drowned in the Delaware River in Holmesburg Wednesday night when he and a cousin went into the water to rescue an 18-year-old woman in trouble.
