A Newtown man missing since 2013 was found dead in New York and had been living under an alias, police say.

Robert Hoagland vanished from Newtown back in 2013 when he failed to pick up a family member at the airport and did not show up for work.

Newtown police say they were contacted this week by police from Rock Hill, New York, investigating a man found dead in his home.

Police say a man who had been living as Richard King and was found dead in Rock Hill was later identified as Hoagland.

They say Hoagland had moved to Rock Hill a couple months after he left Newtown.

Officers say there were no signs of foul play and no criminal element to either his disappearance or his death.
