First thing you must realize is that the river we are talking about is not really a river, it's more of a canal. For a drunk and/or drugged person who would fall in it could generally be very hard to find a way to get out.



Secondly he was last seen in the general area seen in a picture below. As you can see it is surrounded by the mentioned canal. I would also want you to note that as he disappeared into the small side alley, most alleys in this area will lead you directly to the riverside.



So my theory is that he was on a bender with friends, heavily drinking bear and/or experimenting with drugs. He disappeared from his friends to the alley to go pee. The alley lead him right to the canal. While peeing, in his intoxicated state he fell in, swallowed water/hit his head somewhere and his body sank under the water and was found a day or two later.

It wouldn't be the first or the last accident like this in that area.
