Trentin Isaac was found dead in Ohio days after he went missing, police said.

A missing teenager has been found dead, and now police in Ohio are investigating the circumstances surrounding his death.

Trentin Isaac, 16, was last seen Nov. 12, according to a Nov. 18 news release from the Mansfield Police Department.

Officials said they received numerous “tips and rumors concerning videos and social media posts allegedly related to Trentin’s disappearance,” the release said. But police said none of this was submitted to investigators.

On Nov. 19, Mansfield Police Chief Jason Bammann told WKYC that Isaac’s body was found in Harrison County under “suspicious circumstances.”

“There are more questions than answers at this point,” detectives told WJW.

Family members said Isaac, also known as Ray Ray, was “cherished by so many,” a GoFundMe page said.

“His warmth and presence touched everyone who knew him, and his passing has left an unimaginable void in all our lives,” the page said.

A cause of death has not been released.

Mansfield is about a 65-mile drive southwest of Akron.
