New York State Police have released the identity of the man whose 83-year-old body was found deceased Wednesday in the Allegheny River.

Police said, Robert L. Granger Sr. of Allegany was found in the river behind St. Bonaventure University around 12:25 p.m.

Granger was believed to be on a bicycle ride when he rested at a nearby park bench. Granger had fallen down an embankment entering the Allegany River and was located a short time later.

Investigation reveals that foul play is not a factor. An autopsy is being done to determine the cause of death. This is an ongoing investigation.
