SCURRY COUNTY -- A body was discovered Saturday afternoon in Scurry County, according to DPS officials.
Someone found the body in an area southwest of Snyder and reported it to the Scurry County Sheriff's Office, who then contacted the Texas Rangers and the Texas Dept. of Public Safety, said Trooper Sparky Dean of DPS.
Law enforcement personnel from all three agencies have been at the location attempting to recover the body since Saturday afternoon and were back at what they are treating as a crime scene on Sunday.
The body appears to have been there a while, judging from how much it has decomposed, and authorities have not been able to yet determine age or gender, Dean said.
After it is recovered, the body will be sent to the Medical Examiner's office in either Lubbock or Ft. Worth.
