Body found in Port Dalhousie has been identified

Niagara police say the body found in the water near the Heywood Generating Station in Port Dalhousie last week has been identified as 37-year-old Katrina Blagdon.

Blagdon had been missing since New Year’s Eve at 6 p.m. The family was notified by a family friend on New Year’s Day.

The 37-year-old is the mother of two boys and was living in St. Catharines.

Earlier today a Facebook post from a group dedicated to finding Katrina said some of their group found a missing duvet and sleeping bag in Twelve Mile Creek next to the Welland Vale bridge.

Blagdon’s body was positively identified today. Police say foul play is not suspected.
