Pray for the Szostak Family

Body in river believed to be missing Latham man

Joshua Szostak disappeared after an evening with friends last December

COXSACKIE — State Police were investigating the discovery of a body found late this afternoon in the Hudson River.

Few details were immediately available, but authorities speaking on a condition of anonymity said they believed the badly decomposed corpse is that of Latham resident Joshua Szostak, who disappeared after drinking with friends on North Pearl Street in December.State Police and Greene County Sheriff’s Deputies were in the process of setting up a command post to coordinate forensic efforts.

How the body was found was not immediately known.

The discovery occurred just days after a special drone plane was brought in to help search for Szostak and Jaliek Rainwalker, a 12-year-old who has been missing for months from Washington County.

The circumstances surrounding Szostak’s disappearance have been a mystery: His cellphone was found at the scene of an attempted vehicle theft at the Port of Albany, 2 miles from where he was last seen. The car was found abandoned, with no trace of its driver.

A surveillance camera at North Pearl and State streets showed that Szostak was alone around 12:15 a.m. the day he disappeared. His parents believe Szostak, who had about $500 with him, was possibly mugged and somehow harmed.
