Authorities confirm that dead body is doctor wanted in ECMC shooting

Updated: June 15, 2012, 1:15 PM

The body of Dr. Timothy V. Jorden Jr., the man suspected in the shooting death of a West Seneca woman, was found this morning in an Eighteen Mile Creek ravine near his home, dead of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Dennis Richards, chief of detectives for the Buffalo Police Department, confirmed that information at a news conference just before 1 p.m.

The body, in surgical scrubs, was found by a pair of parole officers who were assisting police in the search for Jorden, Richards said.

The discovery came only a day after police had said a manhunt was under way for Jorden. But neighbors on the Lakeview street where he lived said they were told this morning by police officers not to worry about their safety because Jorden was dead.
