RIMERSBURG (AP) – Officials have identified the body of a Western Pennsylvania man who disappeared while fishing with a friend at an old mine pond.
Clarion County coroner Terry Shaffer says the body of 22-year-old Aaron Kriebel was recovered Tuesday morning from a pond located on private property off Henry Road in Toby Township.
Kriebel was pronounced dead of an apparent accident.
Shaffer says rescue workers initially responded to the scene early Monday evening, but the Perry Township resident’s body wasn’t found until divers and a search-and-rescue team resumed the search on Tuesday.
State police are investigating and an autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday morning.
