Tempe police cite an ongoing investigation but say there are no signs of foul play.
The body was recovered without any form of ID, and even after a trip to the Medical Examiner's Office, he's still a John Doe.
He's described as "a black male, late 20s to late 30s, medium build, wearing a black T-shirt, blue jeans and white tennis shoes with black designs and no tattoos."
The Tempe PD provided the following sketch, so if you know this guy, call the cops at 480-350-8311.
