The death of a man whose body was found floating in the River Wensum is not being treated as suspicious, police have confirmed.
A member of the public discovered the man, believed to be in his 60s, on Wednesday, March 2, in Norwich.
Katy Hull, a 35-year-old waitress from the city had been walking along Quay Side, near Fye Bridge, when she spotted an object in the water.

Her partner initially thought it could be a mannequin, but on closer inspection the pair realised it was a man and immediately called the police.
A police spokesman said 'Officers were called at 12.05pm to the river near to Wensum Street. Upon arrival officers discovered a man aged in his 60s had sadly died'.
An inflatable RIB was launched and the body was recovered at around 1pm further downstream at Jarrold Bridge.
Police said a file will be prepared for the coroner.
