AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Maine says it should be able to release a cause of death soon in the case of a body found in Greenland Cove near Bremen.

The Maine Marine Patrol announced the discovery of the body of a man on Monday. A spokesman for the medical examiner’s office says a report about the man’s cause of death will likely be available on Tuesday afternoon.

The marine patrol had been searching since Aug. 12 for 63-year-old Glenn Murdoch of Bremen. That search focused on Round Pond Harbor, which is almost two nautical miles south of where the body was located Monday.

Murdoch was reported missing on Aug. 12 after his skiff was found adrift in the harbor where his boat was moored.
