UPDATE | Body in container at Lordstown landfill came from Ravenna

LORDSTOWN

Lordstown police say the body found in roll-off container at the Lafarge Construction Recovery Landfill this morning is that of a white male age 30 to 40. The container came to the landfill from Ravenna.

Police began investigating this morning after the body was found by the driver of the roll-off container when he was preparing to off-load the construction demolition debris inside about 9:30 a.m. A 911 call was made a short time later.

Detective Chris Bordonaro said it's difficult to know yet what caused the man's death but the body has been taken to the Trumbull County morgue, and police will be eager to know the results. So far, it's being treated as a possible homicide.

Bordonaro said he could not discuss the specific job site where the demolition debris came from, but Ravenna police and investigators with the Portage County Prosecutor's Office came to the landfill to participate in the investigation.
