A teenager has died following an incident at a West Yorkshire beauty spot.
The 14-year-old boy got into difficulties at Goit Stock waterfall in Cullingworth on Tuesday evening, police said.
Temperatures in the Bradford district soared during the day, as they did in most of the UK, but no details have been released about what the teenager was doing in the river.
Officers have asked for a group of males who tried to help to come forward so they can piece together what happened.
West Yorkshire Police said on Wednesday: “Emergency services were called just after 6pm yesterday evening to reports of a concern for safety.
“A 14-year-old male had entered the water and got into difficulty.
“Emergency services attended, including fire service, ambulance and underwater rescue teams and recovered a body from the water.
“Police are appealing for witnesses of the incident and in particular, there was a group of males in the area who tried to help the teenager and police would urge them or anyone in the area to come forward and assist with the circumstances of the incident.”
The statement added: “There are not thought to be any suspicious circumstances and a file has been prepared for the coroner.”
