An autopsy is expected to be completed Thursday to determine the cause of death and identify the man found in the Greenview area earlier this week.
According to the Camden County Sheriff’s Department, the body was taken to Southwest Forensics in Springfield, Mo. An autopsy had not been completed by Wednesday due to a heavy case load, a sheriff’s spokesman said.
Authorities are investigating the death of the man found partially inside a vehicle in the Greenview area on Sunday. It was discovered by a motorist on Rabbit Road, a rural part of the county.
Officials said there were no signs of trauma or evidence of foul play.
The man is believed to be local. No one had reported him missing. He is believed to have been dead for at least week, a sheriff’s spokesman said.
Anyone with information to contact the Camden County Sheriff’s Department at 346-2243.
