"At this time, we're still working to confirm the identity of the deceased person," Cpl. Crystal Evelyn said in a news release.

, first responders were looking for signs of a man whose small boat capsized in the Thompson River. Two men were on the boat when it tipped near Overlanders Bridge around 7:15 a.m. on Sept. 3. 

Fire crews and police were called to the area after the two men were heard yelling for help from the river.

One of the men was wearing a life jacket and was able to be brought to shore, where he was treated by paramedics. The second man, however, wasn't wearing a life jacket and hasn't been more than a day after the boat capsized.
