Missing swimmer's body recovered in NSW

The body of a man who drowned while swimming in the Murray River on the NSW and Victorian border has been recovered.

The man was swimming in the middle of the Murray River at Albury on Thursday afternoon when he disappeared underwater after struggling, police said on Friday.

A large number of people were also in the river at the time.

"Members of the public attempted to assist him, but he could not be located," police said.

Divers found the 41-year-old's body on Friday morning about 100 metres from where he was last seen.

His death isn't being treated as suspicious.
