The National Park Service recovered a body in the Grand Canyon believed to be that of a missing Kentucky man.

Along with the body, park personnel found a motorcycle on Wednesday below the South Kaibab Trailhead.

Officials believe the man to be 40-year-old John Pennington, who was reported missing last week.

Pennington was last seen on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, possibly riding a yellow motorcycle, NPS has said.

The National Park Service and the Coconino County Medical Examiner are investigating the death.
