LEHI, Utah (ABC4) — On Friday morning, about 50 dead fish were found floating on the surface of the Jordan River in Lehi.

John Mackey, Director of the Division of Water Quality said they sent out their scientists after they received a report of several dead fish floating on the river.

While the investigation is still in its early stages, Mackey indicated that the warm temperatures make such events likely during this time of year. They also recorded low oxygen levels in the water, which can be harmful to fish.

"The most common reason for fish kill is high temperatures and low dissolved oxygen" shared Mackey. • Dead Fish in the Jordan River. Ryland Sparrow/KTVX • Dead Fish in the Jordan River. Ryland Sparrow/KTVX • Dead Fish in the Jordan River. Ryland Sparrow/KTVX • Dead Fish in
