A man's body was found floating in the Hampton River on Wednesday morning, authorities in New Hampshire said.
He may have been fishing off Hampton's jetty — he was wearing fishing clothing, according to the New Hampshire State Police.
A person called 911 about 7:30 a.m. to report seeing the body in the river, and officers pulled the body from the water by boat, police said.
The man was identified Friday as Stephen Gelineau, a 47-year-old from Lowell, Massachusetts. He was believed to have died accidentally.
