BLYTHEVILLE, Ark. (AP) - A body found inside a burned minivan in northeast Arkansas has been identified as that of a man reported missing.
Blytheville police Det. Jonathan Frazier says the Arkansas State Crime Lab told police Friday that the body is that of 29-year-old Korey Thomas of Osceola.
Police say the body was found Monday in the backseat after firefighters extinguished the burning van that was found in Blytheville.
A suspected cause of death was not immediately released, but Frazier said the death is being investigated as a homicide.
No arrests have been announced.
Thomas had been reported missing Sept. 29.
