Evan Pulley Found Dead Near Chesapeake, After Falling from Train Trestle

Even Pulley Death – Chesapeake Police Department officers found the  15-year-old boy after being missing, and his body was discovered underwater in the Chesapeake River.

On Sunday night, the tragedy happened when the victim, Even Pulley, apparently fell into the water near Chesapeake from a railroad trestle.

At around 7:08 pm, law enforcement agencies reported the location at 7:08 pm 1000 block of Back Road and discovered that a boy had tragically fallen from the railroad bridge.

Later, at around 11 pm, the victim’s body was discovered under the water, and he was declared dead.

When the investigation got underway, the residents who lived behind the rail tracks claimed that they saw the four young boys walking along the track at night. Neighbors also claimed they had warned the kids about the danger of moving toward the edge by the trestle where the Elizabeth River canal is located. But they paid no attention and carried on.

Even though they know it is dangerous, Glenn Edwards, a neighbor, claimed it is typical for people to wander the trestle. He claimed that when the trestle was raised and suspended over the water, he frequently overheard stories of people sinking out of it.

As Evan’s death new spreads, everyone becomes sad and shocked after acknowledging the tragic event, paying tributes, and sending condolences.
