Body Found in Monongahela River Marion County

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on June 10, 2024

According to MetroNews, a fisherman in Marion County made a grim discovery Friday afternoon.
 
Fairmont Police said the angler on his boat found a badly decomposed human body in the waters of the Monongahela River in Fairmont.
 
Police estimated the body had been in the water for weeks. The decomposition was so advanced it made it impossible to tell the body’s gender, race, or ethnicity.
