Gresham police say a Vancouver woman whose body was found Monday night in the Columbia River was a drowning victim.
The Multnomah County medical examiner has identified her as 42-year-old Kimberlee Ast and determined the cause of death was drowning.
Her family told police she went to Islands Moorage but never made it home. Residents searching the area found her body near the dock.
Gresham police Officer John Rasmussen says it appears Ast slipped on the dock and fell into the river.
