\n
The New Orleans coroner’s office Thursday identified the man found floating Monday in Bayou St. John as 53-year-old Anthony K. Joseph<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Chief coroner’s investigator John Gagliano said Joseph died by drowning, but officials are still unsure how he got in the water. Investigators do not suspect foul play, he said.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Joseph was found about 3 p.m. where the bayou ends, near the corner of Moss Street and Lafitte Avenue<\/span>, New Orleans police said. Divers recovered his body, clad in a khaki pants, tennis shoes and short-sleeved, black T-shirt.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Calvin Hebert was cycling near the area when he discovered the body, then ran across the street to a veterinary clinic and asked someone to call the police.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Police have not said whether the body floated to the end of the bayou from another location.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Hebert and another man who watched the investigation unfold Monday said Joseph’s body looked like that of a man who frequently sat under the tree shade lining North Jefferson Davis Parkway, across the water from Moss Street.<\/p>\n
\n
\n
Joseph’s relatives could not immediately be reached.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
