ALBANY, GA. --

The cause of death has been released for a young man found in the Flint River.

GBI investigators say an autopsy has revealed that drowning is the official cause of death.

Special Agent in Charge Kim Baker says she’s still awaiting dental records to determine the identity of the victim. Baker says she may be able to release this information by Friday.

The autopsy did not determine whether the death was a suicide, murder, or accident.

The case is still ongoing. Albany State Police, the Albany Police Department and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation are still looking into the case.
