Police: Body Found is St. Davids Man

A body with features similar to the missing instructor's was found in Wallingford.

Radnor Police Department are confirming that the body of an African-American man found Wednesday is that of St. Davids resident Gerald "Chris" Christopher.

According to a June 15 report by the Philadelphia Inquirer, a decapitated body belonging to what appears to be a black male was found that morning in the rock bed of a creek behind Crum Creek Valley Condominiums in nearby Wallingford, Pennsylvania. Investigators later found the head, as well as a noose, across the creek.

The Nether Providence Township police confirmed that the body had some similarities to Christopher's—who has a tribal tattoo on his right bicep.
