In a tragic incident on the River Thames, police and coastguard authorities discovered a girl's body following a search operation initiated due to reports of two children in distress. Authorities resumed the search on Saturday morning, leading to formal identification by the girl's family. A boy was rescued earlier and remains hospitalized in stable condition. The incident is not considered suspicious, and a coroner's report is underway as part of standard procedure after such occurrences. The search involved multiple agencies including the RNLI and Southeast Coast Ambulance Service.
The girl's body was found at 11:40 on Saturday after a search was resumed that morning by Kent Police's Marine Unit and HM Coastguard. The death is not being treated as suspicious.
The boy was pulled from the water alive on Friday, before he was taken to a local hospital where he remains in a stable condition.
