CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — A search-and-rescue operation in Ross County ended with volunteers finding a man’s body.
The body of Brady W. Page was found Monday afternoon at Junction Earthworks Preserve off Belleview Avenue.
The 48-year-old’s pickup truck was found at the park after he was reported missing last week by Chillicothe Police Department. A search-and-rescue team scoured the woods in the area for signs of the man before crews located his body in a field.
Junction is composed of nine ceremonial earthworks constructed by the Hopewell Culture roughly 2000 years ago. In their original form, the ceremonial enclosures were outlined with raised earthen walls and ringed with ditches, together covering 20 acres of land.
No foul play is expected, according to the county coroner.
A GoFundMe has been created to assist the family in funeral costs.
