Ogden Police have confirmed the body found Saturday morning in the Erie Canal is that of a missing Spencerport teenager.
Eighteen-year-old Joshua Redfield was last seen alive on December 7th…and police had been searching for him since December 8th. His body was spotted by a person walking the Canal towpath behind Thistlewood Lane just outside Spencerport.
That area had been searched several times on foot and from the air. Police believe the body was frozen beneath the ice until this spell of warm weather melted it.
