PHOENIX — Police say two bodies have been recovered from the Salt River and are believed to be those of the kayakers who went missing on April 9.
Phoenix police say 38-year-old Ryan Jacobs and Coates were both reported missing after they left last Sunday morning to go kayaking and never returned home. “This is a very dangerous situation. A low-head dam like this can present multiple challenges. We have multiple currents going in multiple directions. A lot of debris and air pockets that build underneath the water which actually reduce the buoyancy and effectiveness of the PFD life preserver,” said Capt. Scott Douglas, with Phoenix Fire.
