The missing man who worked as a Linden Public School’s paraprofessional was found dead Saturday along the Rahway River, police said.
Brian Gooney, 55, was reported missing last month and was last seen leaving his Rahway apartment on March 9. His body was found on the river banks near Essex Street in Rahway, police said.
Rahway police did not say whether his death was suspicious and an autopsy will be conducted by the Union County Medical Examiner’s Office to determine how he died.
Rahway officers and the Union County Police Department conducted several searches of the Rahway River, its banks and the surrounding area since he was reported missing, police said.
Gooney was a paraprofessional at Soehl Middle School in Linden for the last two years and previously worked more than a decade in the district as a substitute teacher. His car was left in the parking lot of his Main Street apartment and his cell phone was not found, his family previously said.
