Man's frozen body found after Ontario storm

The body of a 41-year-old man was found frozen in a field near Chatham, Ont., after he was stranded in the snowstorm that clobbered southwestern Ontario on Monday, police say.

Chatham-Kent police found security guard Neeland Rumble's body on Tuesday, Sgt. Gary Conn told CBC News on Thursday.

The man was found in a field near Ridgetown, a community in South East Kent County. His car was about 50 metres away, stuck in a snowdrift. Neeland Rumble, 41, was found frozen to death in Ridgetown, Ont., on Tuesday. ((Courtesy of Facebook))

His death "is being attributed to the extended exposure to extreme cold weather. Obviously, hypothermia is what unfortunately took his life," said Conn.

"We don’t know what he was doing out, being exposed to the elements, whether he was trying to render assistance or whatever the case may be. We may never know."

Rumble had been on his way to work. His body was spotted by passing motorists, said Conn.

Police are not aware of any other people who died as a result of the storm, nor have any others been reported missing, he added.
