MIDDLETOWN — The Middletown Police Department, with assistance from the Newport and Portsmouth Police Departments and the U.S. Marshal’s Fugitive Task Force, discovered the body of the missing juvenile Owen Cameron yesterday.
During a coordinated search of the wooded area surrounding the Newport State Airport, authorities used all-terrain vehicles to navigate the terrain, where they found Owen’s body partially submerged in a small body of water.
The Rhode Island State Medical Examiner’s office has taken custody of the body to determine the cause of death.
Although the investigation is ongoing, officials have indicated that no foul play is suspected at this stage.
Further updates will be provided as the medical examiner’s investigation progresses.
