CORPUS CHRISTI (Kiii News) — The Corpus Christi Police Department is investigating a body that was found Thursday on an undeveloped road near the 7700 block of Slough Road in the city's southside.
Around 11 a.m. drivers called police and said they saw a woman's body laying on a dirt road at the end of Slough Road. Police responded and blocked the area off with caution tape as they began their investigation.
Little is known so far about what happened to the woman, but officials said she was an adult.
"We have detectives from the Corpus Christi Police Department out here, and we have investigators from the Nueces County Medical Examiner's Office out here also," CCPD Lt. Chris Hooper said. "That's the extent of the information that we can release at this time."
Police could not disclose whether foul play was involved as their investigation is still ongoing.
