Police have recovered the body of a Bowling Green man who had been missing since late March. 

A property owner near Jennings Creek notified police of a body in the water on Monday evening.  An autopsy confirmed the remains were those of 34-year-old Micah Reed. 

Bowling Green Police Department Spokesman Ronnie Ward says Reed’s exact cause of death hasn’t been determined.

"We had an autopsy," stated Ward. "It's been completed, but the results are all pending, so they've not said 'here is the cause of death.'"

His family says Reed worked in dining services at Western Kentucky University.  His family had reported him missing March 30.
