ASOTIN, Wash. (AP) — An eastern Washington state sheriff says a decomposed body with no head found in the Snake River will be sent to Seattle.
Asotin County Sheriff John Hilderbrand tells the Lewiston Tribune (http://bit.ly/2n5RMWt) that the body found last week is possibly a male. The person's identity and cause of death are unknown.
The body was found Tuesday near Chief Timothy Park west of Clarkston.
Authorities found a pair of men's size-9 tennis shoes on the feet, and the denim jeans on the body were size 36 with a 30-inch inseam.
The sheriff's office says it has contacted other law enforcement agencies in the region to see if there are any missing person cases.
