Thursday night, Omaha Police said they have found and recovered the body of 7-year-old Abi Gurung.

The boy went missing at N.P. Dodge Park Tuesday evening while playing near the Missouri River. His family was unsure if he ran off or if the water swept him away, but he did not know how to swim.

OPD says crews were wrapping up their search when a fisherman approached them saying they had spotted an item belonging to a small child. When crews searched near where that item was spotted, they found the boy’s body under the I-680 bridge.

Law enforcement say no foul play is suspected, but they are still investigating what happened.
