Colin and Katie Glenn have both shared messages on Facebook following the discovery of a body in the River Foyle yesterday.

The body yet to be officially identified, however the Glenn family have posted on Facebook, they 'sincerely believe' it is of Jack Glenn.  However, they want to be '100% sure.'

Searches have been taking place along the Foyle for Jack since he was last seen in February. 

Jack's sister Katie took to social media to share a heartfelt message about her brother:

She said: "As I walk over the pallets from Camp Jacko for the very last time my emotions are everywhere, a feeling of joy my beautiful brother is out of that awful river but also such sadness as it's really hit home now i'll never see your smart little smile again. 

"The past 7 and a half weeks have been the hardest thing iv ever been through but I NEVER gave up! morning none and night I tramped up and down that river mucked to my eye balls , standing by a fire for heat and drinking soup and eating mars bars to keep us going! safe to say I never want to see soup again in my life !!"

Katie also thanked everyone who was involved in the search for Jack: "From the bottom of my heart I just want to thank every last person who helped us out in some way to #getjackback. A big shout out to all the boats in the water the men and woman who took there time out to get there boat onto the water to help us!! And a big massive thank you to the Divers who has been an absolute lifesaver to all us we wouldn't have done it without you especially."
