A body has been found in the search for a teenage boy who went missing while swimming in a river.
The 16-year-old was reported missing at about 14:30 BST on Thursday in the River Dee at Chester.
Shortly before 20:00 search teams found a body believed to be the boy in the river, Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service said.
Formal identification has not taken place but his family are being supported by trained officers.
The emergency services had been searching the river near Lower Park Road, with the river bank and Queen's Park suspension bridge closed as part of the search.
The body of another 16-year-old boy was recovered from the River Weaver near Frodsham on Tuesday after he was believed to have fallen in the water.
A 15-year-old boy's body was also recovered from a river near Derbyshire on Wednesday and a 61-year-old woman died after getting into trouble in the sea at a beach in North Devon.
It comes as emergency services warned of the invisible, deadly dangers associated with open water after six people drowned in English lakes and rivers over the weekend.
