The body of a 16-year-old Needles boy was pulled from the Colorado River on Saturday morning after he and three others jumped from a bridge into the river 12 hours earlier.
A San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department report identified the victim as Andrew McShane.
Andrew and three others were seen jumping off the K Street Bridge into the river about 9:35 p.m. Friday.
The three others surfaced and swam to safety. Andrew, however, had difficulty swimming and didn’t make it to the riverbank, according to the sheriff’s report.
The Sheriff’s Dive Team and Marine Enforcement Unit searched the waters until finally discovering his body about 9:40 a.m. Saturday.
No foul play is suspected.
