HAMILTON, Bermuda — Police in Bermuda say the body of U.S. student Mark Dombroski was found after he went missing while visiting the island for a rugby tournament.
Police are not ruling out foul play in the 19-year-old’s death.
Bermuda police released the following timeline Tuesday:
At 1:30am on Sunday, March 18th 2018, CCTV images show Mark was walking alone along Alexandra Road in Devonshire, which is immediately to the south of where his body was found.
At this juncture, further review of CCTV shows no other activity in the neighborhood at that time.
Mark’s body was found at the base of a significant drop at Fort Prospect.
His wallet and cell phone were found with him, intact.
Contrary to recent speculative social media posts, Mark’s body was not bound or tied up. We await the forensic pathologist’s independent official report.
The Bermuda Police Service is specifically asking for witnesses in the Alexandra Road, Devonshire area that may have heard or seen anything between 1am Sunday, March 18th and 4pm Monday, March 19th 2018.
A further update will be provided following the examination by a forensic pathologist.
