NORTH WATERBORO (AP) — Maine officials say the body found near Lake Arrowhead Saturday is that of 15-year-old boy who was reported missing May 8.

WMUR reports (http://bit.ly/1jW5V4q ) that the Maine Warden Service extends its condolences to the family of 15-year-old Jaden Dremsa.

His body was taken to the state medical examiner’s office to determine the cause of death and confirm the identification.

The Maine Warden Service thanks the hundreds of hunters and other volunteers who helped in the 9-day search. It began after Dremsa’s family reported he had not returned from a walk in the nearby woods.
