A body found near Exeter has been determined to be that of a missing South Huron man.

Police say they can now confirm that 23-year-old Quintin Smith’s body was discovered in October in a wooded area near a steep embarkment adjacent to the railroad tracks.

His body was found underneath an all-terrain vehicle and police say he died from injuries suffered in a rollover crash involving the vehicle.

A missing person investigation focusing on Smith had started a few weeks before the discovery of the body.
