Police and firefighters were called to the river's edge near Hunter Street in New Hamburg just before 8 a.m. when a man fishing saw a body floating in the water. Insp. John Goodman of Waterloo Regional Police said front-line officers and detectives responded to the Wilmot Township call. The man was pulled from the water near the dam close to William Scott Park. Goodman said an au- topsy will be conducted on the body in Toronto. It's too early to specu- late on the circumstances of the death or whether it is suspicious, he said. Police used a drone to take photographs and vid- eo of the area. "It (the drone) maps the scene for us," Goodman said. Kitchener firefighters also assisted with remov- ing the body from river. WATERLOO POLICE FIND BODY IN THE NITH RIVER IN NEW HAMBURG Waterloo Regional Police and firefighters at the retrieval of a body found above the dam on the Nith River in New Hamburg on Sunday. David Bebee, Waterloo Region Record LOCAL OFFICERS WERE CALLED TO THE AREA SUNDAY MORNING. The annual Strummer- fest music festival takes place again this weekend in Waterloo Public Square Aug. 2 and 3. The free concert fea- tures 22 bands, duos and solo artists performing over two days, raising awareness and funds for local charities including, Your Life Counts, Water- loo Region Suicide Pre- vention Council, and House of Friendship - in the memory of former Clash frontman, Joe Strummer. Strummerfest, now in its seventh year, attracts an eclectic range of rock performers, from the in- tense punk rock of The Lucky Ones, to the ska en- ergy of the Theoretically Nameless Band, the indie rock stylings of Rose Cora Perry & The Truth Untold, the alternative originality of the Stephen Stanley Band, and the indie pop and rock of the Craig Dou- gan Trio (Dougan is also the leader of The Almost Hip, a successful Tragical- ly Hip tribute band). Find the full lineup and schedule at www.strum- merfest.ca. All proceeds earned at the show (through sales of festival T-shirts and but- tons) are donated to the event's supported chari- ties, and the festival itself is supported by an array of local businesses and indi- viduals.
