A now-deleted social media post on an Ogden community page prompted a slew of calls from concerned residents asking officers to investigate what turned out to be a man’s body in the city’s 21st Street Pond.
Officers pulled 51-year-old Tracy Rex Kunzler’s body from the pond, near 500 West and 17th Street, on Wednesday, though they were dispatched to the pond to investigate shortly after the person posted the photo to Facebook on Tuesday night, said Ogden Lt. Danielle Croyle.
After a preliminary investigation, police don’t believe the man’s death is suspicious. Because of the ongoing investigation, police said they can’t release information about how the man ended up in the pond or why they don’t suspect foul play.
