The group got some help from Sheila Bugbee She flew her drone up over the frozen pond Amherst Police are asking anyone with information or Ring camera video to call them at (716) 689-1311 We want to hear what’s going on in your community Share your voice and hear from your neighbors (WKBW) — Amherst police announced that the body of Leah Bellitto was found Tuesday morning in a creek off Dodge Road Police said a citizen found her as volunteers and law enforcement were conducting a grid search around Got Creek and Ransom Creek Dodge Road in East Amherst is closed with heavy police presence in the area. pic.twitter.com/HssBoE9x7W They said the death is under investigation but at this point watched as police wrapped up their search off Dodge Road “It's been so cold and however it happened maybe going for a walk and just getting disoriented and just been freezing out here and it's just incredibly sad.” Dozens of volunteers organized by the WNY Missing & Unidentified Persons Network had been searching for Bellitto police told them that the search was being suspended Among those who showed up to volunteer was Alesha Conte “Me and my husband and our kids…we live in Amherst and you know it hits you and it hits home when you when you see this happening in your community," Conte said "And everybody needs help there can't be enough help...with something like this.” “I just knew it was something that I had to do and so that's why I wanted to be a part of it," said Girzone shared that on Sunday afternoon he found a small flower-print backpack on a trail deep inside his property He thought nothing of it until a neighbor reached out to him during the Super Bowl and told him there was a missing woman The description included that of a similar backpack He called police and they came to investigate bringing multiple squad cars and K-9 teams He and his son have been searching around the creek since He learned Tuesday morning about the sad discovery “But they found her at the creek right up here on Dodge Road…Unfortunate for the family Anyone with information in connection to the case is asked to contact police at (716) 689-1311 In August, the longstanding YOLO Restaurant & Lounge on Transit Road in East Amherst was relaunched by its owners as Duke’s Tavern If you were a fan of YOLO — which opened back in 2011 — you should know that it still serves New American food and drinks But the new bar and restaurant has a totally different look and vibe It had a cosmopolitan feel that was an escape from its Transit Road surroundings thanks to the removal of a dividing wall that separated the bar and dining areas The airiness and natural light make Duke’s lean much closer to being a neighborhood joint than its predecessor the menu has gotten a refresh.  YOLO had more of a bistro influence with dishes like mango tuna poke and lobster ravioli The menu at Duke’s goes more in the direction of a gastropub stuffed banana peppers ($14.75) and warm French onion dip ($13.74) Handheld dishes include smash burgers ($16.75) chopped brisket ($16.50) and New York chicken cutlet sandwiches ($17) Main dishes include a bone-in pork chop ($33.75) creamy corn pasta ($23) and a seafood boil ($34.50) The bar at Duke’s has a lot more options and cocktails are a point of emphasis Some of the highlighted drinks include espresso martinis which can be smoke-infused at the bar under a glass dome The new restaurant also has different discounts and features every night it’s open: Thursdays — Old Fashioned ($8) and burger ($10) Fridays — Ladies’ Night food and drink specials but the changes have brought a major vibes shift You’re now much more likely to see families now but Duke’s is still a great spot for a night out Hours at the time of publishing (subject to change): Tuesday to Friday 4 p.m Want to share info or news with us?
