Authorities Recover Body In Potomac River

Cabin John, Md. (AP) ― A Montgomery County fire department official says a body has been found in the Potomac River.

Spokesman Capt. Oscar Garcia says a hiker in the Cabin John area spotted the body around 11:40 a.m. Wednesday. He says searchers, already in the area looking for the bodies of two swimmers who went missing over the weekend, recovered the body.

Garcia says he does not know the gender of the person whose body was found and it's too soon to say whether it is the body of one of the two men who disappeared while swimming in the river on Sunday.
