THE DALLES, Ore. (AP) - Authorities have recovered the body of a man who went missing when his tube capsized on the Deschutes River last weekend.
The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office said 36 -year-old Jonathan Jensen disappeared in the Moody Rapids area on Sunday.
Family friends found his body Thursday in the Columbia River, a little more than a mile (1.6 km) downstream from where the Deschutes flows into it, and called the Klamath County Sheriff’s Office Dive Team, which had also been out looking for him.
