2 Security Officers Found Dead
Charlotte NC June 7 2018
Law enforcement ins two states are investigating after the bodies of two security officers have been found.
In New Mexico, state police are investigating the death of a security officer found in a rural area of the state near the Colorado state line.
The security was patrolling for a private business and may have suffered a medical condition before crashing his vehicle.
His name has not been released at this time.
Authorities in Maine are reporting that the body of security officer Daniel Gagnon, a 26-year-old Brunswick man who had been missing since May 30, was found during a police search Wednesday.
Gagnon’s body was found in dense woods off River Road just before 11 a.m. by Maine Warden Service Cpl. Dave Chabot and K-9 Ruby, according to a statement by Brunswick police Cmdr. Tom Garrepy.
His death does not appear suspicious, but is still being investigated by Brunswick police and the Maine Medical Examiner’s Office.
He was last known to have left his home on Pleasant Street with just his cellphone and was wearing a T-shirt, shorts and sandals.
Brunswick police have been searching for Gagnon since he was reported missing, aided by the Maine Warden Service, which conducted a search of the Androscoggin River and open spaces in almost a mile-wide radius of Gagnon’s home last Thursday. His family organized their own search Saturday. Members of Maine Search and Rescue Dogs have also participated.
Gagnon’s cell phone provider tried pinging his phone off cell towers, which in this case provided unreliable information.
Gagnon was employed by Bowdoin College.
