Body found in river near Kirby Park: Still no news

Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania

On March 12, 2024, authorities retrieved a body from the Susquehanna River near the Kirby Park side of the Market Street Bridge. Since then, there have been no updates regarding the identity of the individual or the circumstances surrounding their death.

The body was found floating face-down in the swiftly flowing river, which was experiencing higher-than-normal water levels of 13 feet at the time. This water level is considered elevated for this section of the Susquehanna.

The above is literally the only information I can find about this case, so I’ve created this blog post to keep tabs on it.
