Samuel Nunez, 37-year-old, had been reported missing on Tuesday, authorities said. Police officers began searching the Garret Mountain area for evidence of his whereabouts.

“Police divers were able to locate his body in a pond a short distance from a rock ledge where some of his personal property had been found,” authorities said on Thursday morning.
