Authorities have recovered a body from the Ohio River at Newburgh. WNIN’s John Gibson has details:

The male body was reported in the water near the Newburgh Lock and Dam at about 10:30 Monday morning.

Henderson County divers recovered the body during the noon hour.

There’s no word yet on the man’s identity.

The discovery comes about a week after Justin MacDonald of Spencer County was reported missing from the French Island Marina near the Warrick-Spencer county line.

It has not been confirmed if the body found Monday is MacDonald’s.
