Body Found Following Search for Missing Corlette Man

BY MADELAINE MCNEILL

Police say they have located the body of a man reported missing from Nelson Bay last week.

Officers conducted an extensive search for 90-year-old Barry Greentree after his family reported him missing when he failed to return home on January 17.

Around 6 o'clock this morning a motorist spotted a vehicle down an embankment near Raleigh on the state's mid-north coast and notified police.



The body of a man, which has yet to be formally identified, was located inside the car.

Inquiries into the incident are continuing and police are not treating the man's death as suspicious.
