BATTLE CREEK (AP) — Police in Battle Creek said they've found the bodies of two men in the Kalamazoo River.

Sgt. Martin Brown said the bodies of the 41- and 43-year-old men were found Saturday morning. He said they were identified with fingerprints, but their names weren't immediately released pending notification of relatives.

Brown said autopsies were planned for next week, when a cause of death would be determined.

The Battle Creek Enquirer reported a small crowd watched as police began to retrieve the bodies.
