Man who vanished after Celtics game is found dead in river
BOSTON (AP) A Massachusetts man who vanished after attending a Boston Celtics game more than two weeks ago has been found dead in a river.
State police say they pulled the body from the Charles River on Sunday morning after a passer-by spotted it. Police on Monday confirmed it was that of 23-year-old Michael Kelleher, of Southborough.
Kelleher's parents said in a statement: ''Michael was claimed by the Charles River the night of his disappearance. At 8:00 this morning, the river gave him back to us.''
His parents also thanked everyone who helped in the search.
Kelleher was last seen March 29 after attending a Celtics game with a friend.
The cause of death remains under investigation.

This story has been corrected to show Kelleher was found Sunday morning, not Sunday night.
