Cass County officials responded last week to a report of a possible deceased person in a field in LaGrange Township.

Sheriff Richard Behnke said deputies were called shortly after 1 p.m. Thursday to an area near the intersection of Beeson Street and M-62, a location northwest of Cassopolis.

Fingerprints from the victim were obtained during autopsy Friday. Behnke said the victim was identified as Bonnie Lou Holtz, a 65-year-old Porter Township resident.

The cause and manner of death is still under investigation, Behnke said.
