CEDAR RAPIDS – Authorities have identified the human remains found in Iowa’s Cedar River as a city worker from Cedar Rapids whose pickup was submerged in the icy waters.

The Iowa Office of the State Medical Examiner has identified the human remains found December 30, 2022 on the Cedar River near Bertram as missing Cedar Rapids resident and City of Cedar Rapids employee, Erik Spaw. Foul play is not suspected in his death, authorities say.

Mr. Spaw was reported missing on May 7, 2022 when the city-owned pickup truck he had been driving was found submerged in the Cedar River just upriver from the Edgewood Bridge. Search teams from the Cedar Rapids Fire Department, Linn County Sheriff’s Office, Iowa Task Force One, Johnson County Dive Team and others, conducted an extensive search of the river attempting to locate Mr. Spaw. His remains were located last Friday by hunters on the Cedar River.
