CHITTENANGO, N.Y. \u2014 The New York State Police found the body of a person who went missing in the Chittenango Falls area in May.<\/p>\n

The state police said the body of Anna J. Blaszkow, 24, was found on July 2 around 11:31 a.m. in a heavily wooded area just outside of Chittenango Falls State Park on Carrys Hill Road in Cazenovia, N.Y.<\/p>\n

Police noted that Blaszkow was also known as “Ansel.”<\/p>\n

The police credited Trooper Connors and K9 “Todz” for finding Blaszkow. They were conducting a preliminary inspection of the area in preparation for an additional search that was scheduled with the Chittenango Police Department.<\/p>\n

As of Monday morning, the state police said there is no indication of foul play. The Onondaga County Medical Examiner’s Office will conduct an autopsy to determine how Blaszkow died.<\/p>\n

Blaszkow was first reported as missing<\/a> by the state police on May 16.<\/p>\n

At the time, Blaszkow was last seen by family on May 11. The family was concerned about Blaszkow after they found a letter expressing self-harm.<\/p>\n

Investigators believed that Blaszkow used an “unknown vehicle” from their residence in the Village of Chittenango to Chittenango Falls State Park on May 12.<\/p>\n

The New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation in Oneida, N.Y., has taken the lead in the investigation. The Chittenango Police Department is assisting.<\/p>\n

The investigation into the matter remains ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CHITTENANGO, N.Y. \u2014 The New York State Police found the body of a person who went missing in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":288188,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9,11,10,49,51,50],"class_list":["post-288187","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-new-york-state","tag-new-york-state-headlines","tag-new-york-state-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/288187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=288187"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/288187\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/288188"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=288187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=288187"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=288187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
