The scene was secured and once the sun came up, police looked for evidence in the area, while waiting for the state medical examiner to respond.

As of this post, police have limited details about the person.

“As of this time both the cause of death and the identity of the deceased person is undetermined,” O’Malley said. “The body was badly decomposed and as a result, officials are unable to determine whether or not this person is a male or female.”

The person is believed to have short dark hair, possibly a buzz cut that had grown out a bit. The person was wearing dark jeans, a gray T-shirt, and an olive green fleece.

Investigators are looking for information about anyone who may have been missing since or were last seen around July or August of this year.

If anyone has information that might assist police in identifying the person, they are being urged to call the Concord Police Department at 603-225-8600 or the Concord Regional Crimeline, at 603-226-3100.
