According to the deputy sheriff, he told his mother that he was returning home via the bike path.
Cammbrourelis-Haskins left his house on Monday morning, but was expected to be back by 5 p.m. His family became concerned when his phone call was disconnected and he did not return home.
The 19-year-old boy was found dead by authorities in a wooded area of Milford.
The district attorney’s office said Cammbrourelis-Haskins’ death appears to be an isolated incident and there is no danger to the public.
On Monday, Haskins was last seen alive pushing a bicycle with a flat tire down a bike path in Milford. He was reported missing by his mother in the late hours of Monday.
Cammbrourelis-Haskins’ cell phone pinged from a cell tower behind Garrets Convenience Store on Cedar Street in Milford as he spoke to his mother.
More than 40 police officers, a dozen police dogs and their handlers participated in the search, and four drones were used for the aerial search.
Massachusetts State Police joined Milford and Hopkinton officers and search teams from Central Massachusetts and Northeastern Massachusetts law enforcement agencies, the deputy sheriff said.
According to Milford police, Cammbrourelis-Haskins had an eating disorder. He also suffered from mental health problems and told his family about life in the forest.
Haskins’ bicycle helmet was recovered from the scene where his body was found.
Authorities have not yet found a cause of death, but it does not appear that Haskins was killed.
Haskins’ death resembles another case of neglected parenting. This case highlights the importance of monitoring the mental health of our children.
Mental health issues can push a person over the edge in no time.
