The body of Inocencio Torres Acevedo,
years old, who had been reported missing, was found this Saturday floating in the Rio Grande, in Arecibo.
A citizen who was kayaking at the mouth of the Río Grande in the La Puntilla area informed the Police of the finding.
Arecibo Municipal Emergency Management Personnel removed the body to the shore and he was later identified by a relative, according to the police statement.
This morning, relatives of Mr. Torres Acevedo had gone to the barracks to file a missing person complaint because, since Friday, they did not know his whereabouts.
The Arecibo Homicide Division, together with prosecutor Ismael Ortiz, took charge of the investigation, while the body will be taken to the Institute of Forensic Sciences to determine the cause of death.
