Boardman Township police said the body of George Harris, 63, was discovered Monday morning by search crews using dogs. Authorities suspect he died of natural causes while clearing snow sometime over the weekend.

The area outside Youngstown in northeast Ohio received 9 inches of snow Friday and Saturday.

Police said neighbors of Harris contacted his relatives when he wasn't seen during the weekend. Also, his church became concerned Sunday when Harris didn't show up to play the organ as scheduled.

The Mahoning County Coroner's office was conducting an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.
