A strong weather system with rain and damaging winds blew across Appalachian Power’s service areas in waves Saturday, from afternoon through the night. By early Sunday morning more than 1200 customers in the Northern Panhandle were without electric service as a result of storm damage. As expected, outages are widespread across much of the company’s service area.
Wheeling Police detectives are investigating after a man’s body was found behind a building in the area of 22nd and Chapline Streets in Center Wheeling.
Two people found the body around 10:20 a.m. Friday and called 911.
An exact cause of death is unknown
