JOHNSTOWN, Pa. (WJAC) \u2014 More than two years after Johnstown police charged a local woman who allegedly hid a man’s dead body inside the attic of a home<\/a> in Old Conemaugh Borough, investigators say the woman is now in custody.<\/p>\n

Detectives say now 41-year-old Angela Rice was recently found and arrested in New York in connection to her abuse of a corpse charge tied to the death of 36-year-old Gregory Rohn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Investigators say Mr. Rohn’s body was found wrapped in a tarp and hidden in the attic of a home, along the 100 block of Adams Street, in June of 2024.<\/p>\n

Police say he had been reported missing months prior and county investigators determined that his death was “highly suspicious.”<\/p>\n

Last summer, Johnstown Police charged Rice<\/a> after an acquaintance came forward and reported that she had admitted to hiding Rohn’s body “in the walls” after he allegedly overdosed.<\/p>\n

Investigators noted that Mr. Rohn’s body had been inside the home’s crawl space of several months as he had reportedly decomposed “down to the skeletal remains” and “through the floor.”<\/p>\n

According to online court records, Rice was arraigned Thursday night and is now jailed at the Cambria County Prison on $200,000 bail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"JOHNSTOWN, Pa.
