§   §   §

A body found in Trumbull County has been identified as that of a Greenville man, and police are looking for another man in connection with his death.

A hunter found the body of Charles Palm, 29, at 6:30 p.m. Friday near a gravel parking area in the Shenango Wild Life Area in Vernon Township. Police are treating Palm's death as a homicide but did not say what caused his death.

A phone call to the Trumbull County Coroner's office Sunday was not returned.

Investigators from the Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Department of Natural Resources are now looking for information on the whereabouts of Bruce Coxson, 46, of Vernon, Ohio. Coxson is white, 6 feet 4 inches tall, weighs 230 pounds, and has brown hair and blue eyes.

He has been known to frequent both the Vernon and Greenville areas, according to a news release from the state police. Coxson is also believed to have a camp in the Clarion area, police said.

Anyone with information about Coxson is asked to call the highway patrol's Warren post at 1-330-898-2311.
