Officials are investigating after a body was found in the water off the shores of Barrington Friday morning. According to the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management, a quahogger called authorities after finding the body in the water near Nayatt Point Road just after 7 a.m. Barrington police told Eyewitness News that they originally set up a staging area at Haines Memorial Park in Barrington, but moved the staging area to a boat ramp at Colt State Park in Bristol just after 8 a.m. Colt State Park is located in Bristol, but the boat ramp is just across the water from where the body was recovered. It’s unclear the gender or identity of the body or if foul play is suspected.
