Body recovered from South Sask. River believed to be missing jet-skier: police
world / draft
A body pulled from the South Saskatchewan River is believed to be Adan Vargas Salvador, a jet-skier who went missing on June 20 after going over Saskatoon's weir. Police are waiting for dental records to confirm the identification, but have notified Salvador's family. His jet-ski was found earlier. This identification is tentatively confirmed by police, though other news outlets report a "missing Mexican man" or "watercraft rider" being found. Authorities are continuing their investigation into the incident, with the location of the recovery identified as about 30 kilometers north of Saskatoon.
