Dartmouth Police have released the name of a Quahogger whose body was pulled from the water off of Smith Neck Rd. Tuesday night.

Det. Kyle Costa says members of both the Dartmouth Police Department and Dartmouth Fire Department District 1 recovered the body of Manuel Marques around 9 p.m. roughly a quarter-mile from the Padnaram Bridge.

The 65-year-old was transported to St. Luke's Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

Costa says that, even though Marques's death doesn't appear to be suspicious, an assessment will be conducted by the State Medical Examiner's Office.
