Missing man's body found

COEUR d'ALENE - The body of the Coeur d'Alene man who fell from the back of a boat Tuesday night on Lake Coeur d'Alene between Carlin Bay and Crescent Bay was found, the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office said Thursday.

The body of Riley Odwyer, 24, was recovered around 3 p.m. Thursday in 130 feet of water by the office's dive and rescue team.

The body will be sent to the Spokane County Medical Examiner's Office for an autopsy.

Deputies were notified around 8:40 p.m. Tuesday by a male who told them that Odwyer, originally from Fernwood, but most recently of Coeur d'Alene, had fallen off the back of a boat as he relieved himself.

The reporting party first reported that he thought he was driving the boat near Gotham Bay, but first responders eventually found the reporting party near the center of the lake between the Carlin and Crescent bays.

Alcohol is believed to be a factor in the fall.

The office's Sonar Team spent about three hours searching for the body Thursday.
