Lancaster County authorities are working to identify a body found in field east of Lincoln around 3:30 Tuesday afternoon. Chief Deputy Ben Houchin says a men clearing trees near 98th and Havelock discovered the body.
“It is highly suspicious and we are working it as a homicide,” says Chief Deputy Ben Houchin. “Crime scene techs from the sheriff’s department and the Lincoln Police Department are working the scene. It is unknown if it is a male or a female.”
But Houchin stresses that it is not Tyler Goodrich, who was last seen leaving his home on November 3. He says the body had been dumped there and an autopsy has been scheduled.
