A man found dead in St. Paul this week was a 53-year-old who’d been reported missing earlier this month.

Police are investigating the circumstances of Eric McCloud’s death.

His body was found Tuesday in a marshy area near Interstate 35E and Cayuga Street.

The Ramsey County medical examiner’s office has not issued a ruling on his cause of death, police said Thursday.

Police asked anyone with information to call investigators at 651-266-5650.

McCloud’s family last had contact with him Oct. 8 at his St. Paul home, according to an Oct. 18 alert issued by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension on behalf of St. Paul police, requesting the public’s assistance in finding him.
