Body of missing Stamford man found on beach

STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) The body of a Stamford man who went missing in February has been found washed up on a beach in Stamford.

Twenty-six-year-old Jorge Simon was a native of Guatemala who had lived and worked in the city for seven years. His family reported him missing on Feb. 16.

Neighbors spotted the body on a private beach Monday afternoon and alerted police.

Lt. Diedrich Hohn says authorities are trying to determine how Simon ended up in the water. Hohn says there are no signs of trauma on the body. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday.

Relatives told police that Simon had been out with friends and was last seen in the early morning hours of Valentine's Day.
