Police are investigating after a body was found in Owls Head on Thursday.

Rockland Police told WABI-TV that the body was found by law enforcement in wetlands, off Route 173. The deceased was transported to the State Medical Examiner's Office to determine cause of death and the person's identity.

Over the past couple of weeks, officials have been searching for a missing man in the same area. Tyler Gricus, who had been staying on a boat in Rockland Harbor, was reported missing on April 12th. Police have not commented on whether the body found in the wetlands could be Gricus.

We'll update this story as more details become available.
