TEMPE, Ariz. - Tempe police say they are working to recover what appears to be a body from the Salt River near the spot where an Arizona State University student was last seen.

Nineteen-year-old freshman Jack Culolias was last seen Nov. 30 after being kicked out of the Tempe bar during a fraternity party and was suspected of being drunk.

The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office Dive and Rescue and canine teams conducted searches with underwater cameras and radar equipment in the Salt River north of Tempe Marketplace looking for Culolias but came up empty.

Tempe police say they got a call Sunday morning of a possible body in the river in the same area. Officers confirmed it appeared a dead person was in the water.

There is no confirmation if the body might be that of Culolias.
