Indiana Conservation Officers and the Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Department are turing to the public for help to identify a woman whose body was recovered from the East Fork of the White River last week.

A passing kayaker located the body partially submerged on a sandbar near the Water Street public access ramp in Columbus on Wednesday.

The body is that of a white woman in her late 40s to early 50s. She is about 5 feet, 2 inches tall and 135 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes. She was wearing blue jeans, a blue jacket, and a T-shirt that reads, “Las Vegas Nevada Athletic Dept.” She has two scars that could assist in identification.

Anyone with information of a person who matches this description and may be missing is asked to call Indiana Conservation Officers Central Dispatch, 812-837-9535, or Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Detective Sgt. Dane Duke, 812-343-0707.
