WASHINGTON – Montgomery County police say a body pulled from the Triadelphia Reservoir is that of a missing Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission worker.
Charles Duckett was last seen in the area of the reservoir near Brookeville, Md. on Dec. 2. He was working on a managed deer hunt for the commission and had been on his way in a boat to recover a deer.

Duckett, of Middle River, Md., was married with three children and worked for the water utility for 12 years.
Police say an autopsy will be conducted. A police spokesman says there were no signs of trauma or foul play, according to The Associated Press.
