Investigators with the Barron County Sheriff’s Office are following up on the death of a Chetek man whose body was found more than a week after he went missing. Deputies say 49-year-old Joseph Moen wasn’t dressed appropriately for the bitterly cold weather. He went missing Christmas Eve and was found Wednesday near a camp he had set up. Investigators say it isn’t clear yet if drugs or alcohol played a role in Moen’s death. The cause of death appears to be hypothermia, but an autopsy will make an official determination.
