FORWARD TOWNSHIP, Pa. (Next Stamina) — The Allegheny County Medical Examiner confirmed that the body of 26-year-old Shelby Rhodes was discovered Saturday near the riverbed on Bunola River Road in Forward Township.

Rhodes had been missing for more than a month after he was last seen on the morning of Feb. 6 leaving a home near the Monongahela River in Washington County, WTAE reported.

The discovery follows an extensive search operation that began shortly after Rhodes’ disappearance.

Last month, emergency crews deployed high-tech equipment to assist in the recovery efforts, though operations were hindered by environmental conditions.

At the time of the initial search, the Monongahela River was covered with ice.

“It’s been an all-out effort to try to recover or find the gentleman that’s missing,” Monongahela City Fire Chief Aaron Leezer stated during the search, CBS Pittsburgh reported.

The body was located in Allegheny County, downstream from where Rhodes was last reported seen.
