Found deceased

"A citizen called dispatch at 7:58 p.m. to report seeing something suspicious in a creek that runs along Ellen Trout Drive near Sayers Street. Officers arrived to find a piece of plastic in the water but continued walking the creek bed as the water had receded substantially since previous searches were conducted. They then located Mr. Jeffero’s body in the water."
