The man whose body was pulled from frozen Learned Pond in Framingham last week was identified Wednesday as Richard Palmer, who had been missing for a few months, officials said.
Palmer, 71, had been reported missing on Nov. 18, the Middlesex district attorney and Framingham police said in a joint statement.
His body was found about 10 feet from shore and pulled from the pond last Tuesday by members of the Framingham Dive team, the statement said.
A passerby had spotted “what appeared to be a body,” around 1:30 p.m. on Jan. 11, the statement said.
The town’s police and fire departments responded to the scene.
