Missing Trumbull man found dead

WINDSOR — The body of a Trumbull County man reported missing Feb. 19 was found Sunday in a thickly wooded area along new Hudson Road.

The Ashtabula Star Beacon reported Karl Brugman, 37, a former Windsor resident who now has a Trumbull County address, is believed to have died of hypothermia, but an official cause of death will be released once autopsy reports are complete. There were no indicators of foul play, investigators told the newspaper.

Brugman was last seen Feb. 15 leaving his home abruptly following an argument and he was not dressed for the cold and rainy weather, according to the Ashtabula County Sheriff’s Office. His body was found about a mile into a wooded, swampy area by the property owner, who lives out of town, the sheriff’s office said.
