Body Found in White River Identified:

05/29/2025 (updated 05/29/2025) Published by Directory Assistance

NOBLESVILLE — Authorities have identified the man whose body was discovered Tuesday morning in the White River northeast of Noblesville.

According to the Hamilton County Coroner’s Office, the deceased has been identified as 35-year-old James Peoples of Noblesville. The cause and manner of death remain under investigation, with an autopsy scheduled for Thursday.

Emergency crews from the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, Cicero Fire Department, and Noblesville Fire Department were called to the scene around 11:35 a.m. Tuesday after a body was spotted in the river near the 11000 block of East 206th Street, between Riverwood Avenue and State Road 37. The body was located just south of the nearby bridge.

Capt. Scott Goff of the sheriff’s office noted that no watercraft or flotation devices were found near the body, and no missing persons reports had been filed prior to the discovery.

Goff also acknowledged that Memorial Day weekend typically brings high activity to the White River and, unfortunately, incidents like this are not uncommon. “It’s a busy time of year on the water,” he said, urging caution for those who plan to enjoy the river over the holiday.

The investigation is ongoing, and further details will be released as they become available.
