PORTLAND, Ore. - Police have confirmed that a body found in the Willamette River Wednesday night under the Marquam Bridge is that of a missing Gresham man.

The search began for 32-year-old Jason Ogan earlier this week when he was reported missing by his family.
    
His car was found abandoned on the Marquam Bridge and his wallet was found in Scappoose.
    
Ogan reportedly suffered from depression and had not been taking his medication.
    
A medical examiner concluded that Ogan drowned and that his death was a suicide.
