Recovery efforts are expected to resume on Monday for a man who fell into the Genesee River near the Maplewood Park-Lower Falls area on Sunday night.

Police say a 24 year old Rochester man was with a group of other people near the top of the falls when he slipped and went over the falls.

Firefighters had a team start an immediate search, but for safety reasons, the search was called off after a couple of hours.
