PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A police spokesman says a body found tangled in ropes along a seawall has been pulled from the Willamette River in Portland.

Sgt. Pete Simpson said the body found Tuesday afternoon near the Portland Spirit dock has been preliminarily identified as a 26-year-old man. The spokesman says nothing so far indicates the death is a homicide.

The Oregon state medical examiner plans an autopsy Wednesday.
