Missing Dartmouth Student's Body Recovered In Connecticut River
HANOVER, NH — New Hampshire Fish and Game was notified of a missing Dartmouth College Student Sunday.
The student, Won Jang, 20, of Middletown, DE, was last seen by friends at approximately 9:30 p.m. on Saturday night, according to conservation officers.
Jang was seen during a casual gathering near the Dartmouth boathouse on the Connecticut River. Concern arose when Jang failed to appear for a planned engagement the next day. Hanover police and fire departments from Hanover, Lebanon, and Hartford, Vermont, initiated a search in the vicinity, including underwater searches near the docks.
Items recovered near the dock suggested that Jang had remained in the river area. NH Conservation Officers, New Hampshire Marine Patrol, and the NH Fish and Game ROV/Sonar Team commenced a comprehensive search by boat and underwater camera. The Upper Valley Wilderness Response Team also employed drone technology to aid in the search effort.
Jang’s body was located in the Connecticut River by the underwater camera at about 7:25 p.m. in the area where he was last seen.
