Vancouver police, working with several other agencies, have identified two people believed to be associated with an empty kayak found in the Columbia River.
One of the two is a woman whose body was found near the Interstate 205 bridge on Friday. The other remains missing.
A bulletin issued Saturday by the Vancouver Police Department said a vehicle owned by one of the people was found in Oregon at a spot where people frequently launch kayaks.
A yellow kayak owned by one of the two is missing from their home.
Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife crews spotted a woman in the river near the bridge around 9:30 a.m. Friday. Crews recovered the body of a woman in her 50s. She had no ID on her and had probably been dead less than 48 hours. She was wearing outdoor clothing and a flotation device.
