Body Found Floating in Schuylkill River

Crews blocked traffic along Philadelphia’s Boathouse Row Monday morning as they responded to a man's body found in the Schuylkill River.

One lane of the Kelly Drive was closed in each direction as Philadelphia firefighters and Philadelphia Police responded to the scene around 7 a.m.

As SkyForce10 hovered overhead a short time later you could see the body in the river and firefighters and police officers on the dock behind one of the boathouses.

A boat could be seen being used to get to the body. Police said that crews pulled the man's body from the water a short time later.
