A 19-year-old youth drowned in the Liffey in Dublin during the St Patrick's Weekend celebrations.
The man, who has not been named by garda∅ at his family's request, was one of two youths who attempted to swim across the river from Lower Ormond Quay shortly after 10 p.m. on Saturday.
The alarm was raised when only one of the two made it to the other side.
Garda sub-aqua divers, who were on duty during the earlier Skyfest firework display, were joined by the Garda helicopter and Dublin Fire Brigade in the search. The body was recovered shortly before midnight.
