FORT WORTH (CBSNewsTexas.com) -  Fort Worth police are investigating another drowning in the Trinity River.

Police recovered a body just after 1 a.m. Sunday.

It was a few hours after NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal hosted a "Bass Music Festival" on Panther Island, where tens of thousands of fans were expected to attend.

Fort Worth police said Monday, that investigators now do not believe that the drowning victim attended the concert. 

"We do have witnesses stating that the individual was on the opposite side of the bank, walking next to the water and then jumped or fell in," Officer Buddy Calzada with FWPD said.

Police have confirmed at least three drownings in the Trinity this year.
