A second body found, ID’d was found along this same stretch of Two Mile Creek in July.

Hamilton police detectives are investigating a body found in Two Mile Creek late Wednesday afternoon that crosses Eaton Avenue.

This is the second body found along the creek since July 31.

Officers responded on Wednesday afternoon to the 900 block of Eaton Avenue in a wooded area that separates Flub’s Ice Cream from Two Mile Creek for a report of a deceased person. Officials indicated there is no foul play suspected, and the investigation is ongoing.

According to the police report, the person found is a 63-year-old man, but his name and address has been redacted until the next of kin notification. He was found in the creek bed behind Flub’s, according to the report.

Butler County Coroner’s Office Administrator Martin Schneider said an autopsy is scheduled for Friday morning. Once the autopsy is completed and the preliminary results relayed to the family, they will release available information to the public, he said.

Hamilton Police spokesman Sgt. Brian Ungerbuehler said the body of Michael Beiting, 66, of Thomas Boulevard in Hamilton, was found July 31 along Two Mile Creek. Schneider said the cause and manner of death of this person, who was found nearby in the 1300 block of NW Washington Boulevard, is still listed as “pending further investigation.”

Ungerbuehler said there’s also nothing suspicious surrounding Beiting’s death.
