Body Was in Rochester Reservoir for Nearly a Month Before Its Discovery
Police in Rochester, New York, have identified the corpse found in a local reservoir, determining it spent nearly a month inside the water supply before it was discovered.
Despite that, city officials lifted a boil advisory for the area and deemed the water safe to drink.
At a press conference on Thursday, Rochester Mayor Malik Evans said that additional tests had “confirmed the safety of the water supply” and that the boil notice had been lifted for those served by the Highland Park reservoir around 1 a.m. the night before.
