Metropolitan police say three bodies have been recovered from the Potomac and Anacostia rivers, but they have not been identified.

Yesterday afternoon, MPD’s Harbor Patrol Unit recovered a body in the Potomac River near the JBAB shoreline. Early this morning, a second body was located in the Potomac River near the Alexandria Waterfront, in which Alexandria Fire Boat assisted with the recovery. Additionally, a third body was recovered shortly after noon in the Anacostia River along the JBAB shoreline.

Police and rescue crews have been searching for three men who disappeared on Sunday after multiple people reported seeing three men go into the Potomac River.

The men who disappeared were identified as 26-year-old Mustafa Haidar, 23-year-old Omid Rabani, and 28-year-old Ahmad Noory.
