NORTH BEND, Neb. (AP) - Authorities say the body of a man pulled from the Platte River near North Bend was that of a man reported missing in Rogers.

The Dodge County Sheriff’s Office says two kayakers spotted the body caught in some limbs about 12:45 p.m. Sunday at a spot about two miles west of North Bend. The body was recovered later in the afternoon.

The Sheriff’s Office said in a news release Monday that tattoos helped officials identify the man as 29-year-old Alex Orellana. An autopsy has been ordered to help investigators determine how he died.
