Police believe a body found in New York is that of 21-year-old Miles Applebaum, a missing Temple student.

The body was found in Glazier Preserve in New Castle, New York around 6 p.m. Thursday, New Castle Police said. They are awaiting autopsy reports from the Westchester County Medical Examiner to confirm speculation before releasing any additional information.

Applebaum, a junior jazz studies major, was reported missing from his North Castle, New York home on Monday. His car was found in the Glazier Preserve parking lot around 5 p.m. on Wednesday, police said.

Applebaum also took a leave of absence this semester, university communications confirmed.

Edward Applebaum, Miles’ father, told The Huffington Post earlier this week that his son suffers from severe depression and is suicidal.

“Our horrible fear is that we’ll never find him again,” Edward Applebaum told the publication.
