A body recovered from Eugene’s sewage system has been identified as 24-year-old Noah Dewitt.
Eugene police spokeswoman Melinda McLaughlin said Sunday that the man was last seen in mid-February, when he was reported missing by a friend who said Dewitt had left a home in distress at 2 a.m.
Police said Thursday the body was in a concrete underground well at a pump station that collects waste from south and west Eugene. A crew found the body while doing twice-a-year maintenance.
Dewitt was a graduate of the University of Oregon and Portland’s Grant High School.
