Police are searching for a 16-year-old boy, who was last seen near the River Dart possibly under the influence "of a psychoactive substance".
Nathan Wood was spotted by a canoeist who saw him running naked heading towards the river in a seemingly distressed state on Friday evening. The canoeist then contacted the emergency services.
The teenager had been out with a group of female friends when he set off through a field near their school in Devon. Friends have reported "hearing a splash", although none said they saw him enter the water.
He may have been on a psychoactive drug of some sort, said police. Emergency services arrived at the scene of the incident in Totnes about an hour after Nathan was last seen by his friends.
Psychoactive drugs include legal highs, as well as synthetic cannabis.
