WREG in Memphis reports that the body of a young man was found after deputies were dispatched to a portion of Interstate 55 in Desoto County.
Officials say they were dispatched shortly after 11:30 a.m. after a citizen found the body of the young man on the side of the road just south of the rest area on I-55.
The sheriff’s department says that it is not clear at this time if any foul play was involved or if he was struck by a vehicle.
This is an ongoing investigation.
