NEWCASTLE, Utah (AP) — Authorities say a man's body was found about 14 miles northwest of Newcastle in Iron County.

Officials with the Iron County Sheriff's Office say they were called at about 1 p.m. Wednesday with a report of a possible dead body.

Deputies who arrived at the scene determined the man was dead. They say he's in his mid-40s, although they haven't yet released his name.

Investigators say the death is suspicious, but they don't suspect foul play. The body was scheduled for an autopsy at the Utah State Medical Examiner's Office.
