TROY, Vt. (TCD) — State police are conducting a “suspicious death” investigation after a body was found inside a large container in a state park.
Vermont State Police said in a statement that troopers received a call Tuesday, Feb. 6, from a passerby who discovered possible human remains in the container, which was located on a sand bar along the Missisquoi River. Troopers went to Missisquoi State Park and confirmed the remains were those of an adult female.
Officials transported the woman’s body to the Chief Medical Examiner’s Office in Burlington for an autopsy and positive identification.
