TUSCARAWAS COUNTY, Ohio (WJW) — An investigation is underway in northeast Ohio after authorities say a “skeletonized body” was found Saturday.
Deputies in Tuscarawas County said someone called 911 Saturday at around 10:30 p.m. to say they found the decomposed body of a person near Dover-Zoar Road in Sandy Township.
“The body was in a location over an embankment off the side of the road and may have been there for some time,” detectives said.
“Deputies and detectives responded and located a partially skeletonized body. Decomposition is significant and detectives believe the person may be a female however they will need assistance from the coroner’s office to confirm that,” detectives said.
The person had on sweatpants, black shoes, and a light-colored shirt, deputies said. Photographs and evidence were collected and the remains were taken to the Cuyahoga County Coroner’s Office. No immediate signs of trauma were evident, according to detectives.
