The 25-year-old fled the scene of a car accident in Raleigh early Saturday, and authorities tried to locate him but couldn’t so they called off the search, Wake County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Eric Curry said. Shortly after 9 a.m. authorities received a call from the Duke Energy substation where an employee found Cohen’s body, Curry said.
