Helicopter used to find dead body in ravine near South Onondaga, New York


TOWN OF ONONDAGA, N.Y. -- Rescue crews used the Onondaga County Sheriff's Office aviation unit to recover a dead body from the bottom of a ravine in the Town of Onondaga early Friday morning.

Police had to use the Air 1 helicopter to light the area at the bottom of a 75-foot ravine as deputies and a K9 searched the area near Route 80 and Route 20 for the individual, according to the Onondaga County Sheriff's Office.

Investigators say they heard a cellphone ringing as they searched and that ultimately led them to the body.

The search ended when rescue personnel from the South Onondaga and Otisco Fire Department were able to recover the body from the stream.

Police have not released the identity of the victim.
