Woman’s Lifeless Body Found in Atlantic County

The remains of a woman found on a Hamilton Township roadside this morning are under investigation, and Atlantic County authorities are also searching for her identity.

Members of acting County Prosecutor Jim McClain's office so far have scant details - only that a driver reported the discovery at about 9 AM, and that an autopsy is being performed by the New Jersey State Medical Examiner.

They urge anyone who has information related to the case, or who noticed any suspicious activity in the area, to call their Major Crimes Unit at 609-909-7666, or Hamilton Township Police at 609-625-2700.
