Body Found In Bristol Was Missing Man: Police

BRISTOL TOWNSHIP, PA — Police in Bristol Township say a body found in a wooded area late last week was that of a man who had been reported missing.

At about 2 p.m. Thursday, Bristol Police officers were called to a wooded area behind Brittany Springs Apartments, at 3401 Bristol-Oxford Valley Rd., where there were reports of a body found in the woods.

The body was found by someone who was using a path through the woods, police spokesman Lt. Ralph Johnson said.

Detectives investigated and determined that the body matched the description of William Audria, of Levittown, who had been reported missing by Middletown Township Police. Audria's vehicle was found nearby with his personal belongings undisturbed, Johnson said.

While the investigation is continuing, foul play is not suspected, according to Johnson. The county coroner is conducting a toxicology report, he said. Anyone with information in the case is asked to call police at 267-812-3036.
