"Sacramento County Sheriff's officials are investigating the discovery of a man's body in the Sacramento River near Sherman Island as a suspicious death.
According to a department news release, a man walking along the river near Sherman Island Road and Lelia Drive called 911 about 11 a.m. Friday after he spotted the body floating in the river by the bank.
Deputies said they were unable to determine the man's age and race because the body was badly decomposed.
Investigators are waiting for the Sacramento County Coroner's office to determine the cause and manner of death. It's not clear how long the body had been in the water.
Anyone with information is asked to call sheriff's homicide detectives at 916-874-5057 or Crime Alert as 916-443-HELP. Or send a text message tip to 274637 (CRIMES) by entering SACTIP, followed by the information. Callers can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000."
