A 21-year-old West Point cadet has been found dead in a river after vanishing whilst on spring break weekend in Florida, officials report.

Havin Morris had been partying at an Irish bar in Fort Lauderdale with three of his friends - who later 'lost track' of him - only two days before his body was found.

The young cadet's pals saw him for the final time at Dicey Riley's Irish Pub - near the New River - at around 1am early Sunday morning, The Sun Sentinal reports.
