Remains of missing Waterford man found in Rome

The remains of a missing Waterford man have been found in Rome.

Vincent Wall (aged 27) had been missing since Saturday, December 13 when he fell into the River Tiber.

The swollen river was at its highest level for 40 years at the time following days of heavy rain in the Rome area.

A body matching his description was found by Rome Fire Services late yesterday afternoon just one kilometre from where he disappeared.
