(Beaver Falls, Pa) Beaver Falls Police, along with the Beaver Falls Fire Department were back on scene Friday afternoon near the area where a female was found dead just over two weeks ago. Other unmarked vehicles were also present. Beaver County Radio witnessed investigation activity approximately a quarter mile north of where the scene for the body found was. It is a wooded area along train tracks directly behind and down the hill of where Geneva College is located. The first officer Beaver County Radio encountered was retrieving brown paper bags from a police cruiser and did not have any comment to what was going on. Another set of officers at the scene were spotted walking through the woods. They told Beaver County Radio that the area is private property and to leave the scene immediately. Other activity could be seen further down the tracks. Two additional police cruisers arrived and stopped Beaver County Radio on the way out, saying that the Chief had requested they inform us that entering the area again would result in being arrested.
Two weeks after the body was found, Beaver Falls Police have yet to confirm any details other than a deceased missing female was discovered and insisting there is no danger to the community. A week after the incident, Beaver Falls Police put out a request for help from the community, asking for surveillance footage in specific areas. There has also been no word from the coroner. Sources say the victim was 41 year old Rebecca Miller of Beaver Falls, and that she had suffered multiple stab wounds. She was last known to be going on a walk with a male friend. Her body was discovered along a walking trail in the woods near the Geneva campus. A painted cross with the name “Becky Miller” is now present at the entrance to the trail. Beaver County Radio observed that the fence along the trail has multiple holes in it large enough for people to go through, however we have no confirmed details that suggest any of the breached fence may have played a role in the incident.
