POLICE divers have recovered a body from the River Derwent in Derby.
The body of the man was pulled from the water close to Exeter Bridge at around 12.45pm this afternoon.
Members of Nottinghamshire Police's water search team made the discovery following days of investigation.
A police spokesman said: "Although the body is yet to be identified we do not believe it is Ricky Hill, who has been missing since late September or Lubomir Sana, who has been missing since October 10."
For the past two days the search has been carried put by Derbyshire charity Watersafe UK who have been using underwater cameras to try and locate a missing person.
On Saturday evening members of the public called the police to reports of a man seen jumping from the bridge and into the river.
The identity of the body found this afternoon will not be released until next of kin have been informed.
