Investigators are not treating the death as suspicious.
Gananoque Police say there has been no conclusive determination of the cause of death following the discovery of a body in the Gananoque River Sunday.
In an update released Wednesday, police said a postmortem examination has been completed, but investigators have not established a definitive cause of death.
Authorities, working alongside the Office of the Chief Coroner for Ontario, continue to treat the case as non-suspicious.
