PITTSBURGH (AP) — Authorities say a body found in a western Pennsylvania river has been identified as a man described as “vulnerable” who had been sought since he disappeared a few days into the new year. The Allegheny County medical examiner’s office said Friday that 62-year-old William Casale was the man found dead Monday in the Ohio river. Authorities said the body was pulled from the water near the Fish and Boat Commission boat ramp just south of Route 65 in Kilbuck Township. Pittsburgh police had asked for help from the public in early January to find Casale, who was last seen Jan. 3 on the South Side of Pittsburgh.
