Police recover body found in Brays Bayou

Houston police recovered a body found floating in Brays Bayou on Sunday morning.

A bystander initially called authorities Saturday after spotting a dead man in the water. But after hours of searching, police came up emptyhanded.

Then on Sunday, the dive team returned to the scene near MacGregor Park and sometime after 10 a.m. pulled out the body of a man who’d apparently drowned in the bayou.

The death appeared to be accidental, police said. The victim was not immediately identified.
