Columbus police said Raymond Solomon, 64, of Dillon Drive, was the man who was found dead by two kayakers.

Police said an autopsy still must determine how Solomon died, but the death doesn't appear to be suspicious.

Solomon's body was found about 7 p.m. on Monday, facedown in water along the river. Homicide detective Amy Welsh said Solomon was last seen alive on Monday afternoon.
