Description
Authorities are trying to determine what led up to the death of a man whose body was found floating down the Withlacoochee River over the weekend.
A neighbor in the area called the Hernando County Sheriff's Office around 1 p.m. Sunday and told authorities two people in their canoe flagged him to report what they found, according to the agency. They then continued down the river.
The body was eventually recovered from the water by crews using an airboat. Authorities also searched the riverbank for any evidence related to the man's death, the sheriff's office said. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission tried to find the two canoers, but its efforts came up empty.
