Saint John police say they have identified a body found along the Saint John River.

A fisherman discovered the body just north of Reversing Falls around 1 p.m. on Sept. 1.

DNA analysis has determined the body was that of a 50-year-old man from Saint John.

“Investigators do not believe that the circumstances of death are criminal in nature,” police said in a news release on Wednesday.

Police said they will not be releasing the man’s name at the request of his family.
