DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - A body found in the Des Moines River has been identified as a 29-year-old road construction worker who disappeared on Halloween.

Des Moines police have confirmed that the body found Saturday afternoon is Bradley Wayne Paullin of Winterset.

Police say there is no sign of foul play, and an autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause of death.

Paullin was last seen walking into the woods near the river after getting into an argument at a Halloween party.

Police, rescue workers and volunteers had been searching the woods. A trained search dog went through the area earlier Saturday.
