Body of Bedford Teen found
A Bedford teen was found dead of an apparent suicide, and another was arrested for failing to report a dead body within three hours of discovery, theft of a firearm, and runaway. According to Bedford Police Chief Terry Moore, two brothers, aged 16 and 17, had run away from home and took guns with them from the house. Officers found the 16 year-old after receiving tips on his whereabouts, and recovered one of the weapons. Tuesday morning, police found the body of the 17 year-old in a nearby wooded area, after receiving information from the brother. Although the case is still under investigation, the police have no reason to suspect foul play.
