Petition: A family member, friend, medical professional or another person can file a mental hygiene petition at a circuit clerk's office or treatment facility.

Examination: The sheriff takes the patient to a mental health facility for evaluation. The case proceeds to a mental hygiene hearing, if the psychologist certifies the patient as being a risk to self and others.

Troopers said there are two tattoos that could help identify the man. One is a tribal tattoo on the right upper arm, and the other is a quote on the right rib cage, abdomen area that reads "Dying Breed".

Troopers said the body was found in the Greenbrier River at Rocky Bottom Campground.

No word yet if foul play is suspected in this case.
