Nick Garza Found in Otter Creek?

WCAX-TV in Burlington reports:

Members of a Maine search team now say they believe they spotted the body of missing college student Nick Garza two weeks ago, while conducting an aerial search of Otter Creek. A team from the Down East Emergency Medical Institute conducted the search on April 17th, taking more than 700 photos of Otter Creek using high resolution cameras that can see about 15 feet into the water. In two of those photos, crews saw what they believe are the legs and feet of Nick Garza. “We’re pretty confident that it’s something that would be jeans and looks like would be shoes. The colors are correct and there shouldn’t be anything else in the area that resembles that,” Richard Bowie, Director of the Down East Emergency Medical Institute told Channel 3.

The Middlebury Police Department reports that it will conduct a search of the water below the Otter Creek falls at some point this week.
