A day after police confirmed that they had found a man’s body in the Gatineau River, swimmers were back in the water near the red covered bridge at Wakefield, cooling off on a sultry long weekend.
A 23-year-old Algonquin College student and three friends had arrived at the river downstream from the bridge on Thursday night, police said. The student, a Zimbabwean man, got caught in the current and disappeared.
His body was recovered Friday night. His name had still not been released on Saturday.
Flowers and a note, with the words “rest in peace” visible across the top of it, sat by the bridge Saturday afternoon.
MRC des Collines police Const. Martin Fournel had said Friday that the river’s water level had risen and the current had been running faster in recent days, likely because the dam upstream in the municipality of Low had been letting more water through.

Flowers and a note sat by the covered bridge on the Gatineau River in Wakefield on Saturday Sept. 5, 2015.

Olivier Rocheleau-Leclair creates large bubbles along the Gatineau River in Wakefield on Saturday, Sept. 5, 2015 as others enjoy the sun and cool off in the river.
