LEAVENWORTH, Kan. (AP) - Leavenworth police say a man whose body was found last week in the Missouri River was a 38-year-old whose last known address was in St. Joseph, Mo.
Police say the death of Jason Davies is being investigated as a homicide. His body was found last Thursday by Nebraska Game and Park employees who were tracking sturgeon in the river.
