Police have concluded that a 16-year-old whose body was found Thursday morning in a Box Elder County park was brought to the locale sometime after his death.
The Box Elder County Sheriff’s Office said it considers Marcus Elkins’ death suspicious, according to a news release, and they added his body showed no external signs of trauma.
Elkins was last seen about 10 p.m. Wednesday near Bill Flack Park, 2450 N. 4050 West, in Corinne. Someone found the body just before 8 a.m. Thursday in the park.
The sheriff’s office said they’ve identified “persons of interest" who may either have “first-hand knowledge to aid the investigation” or “may be involved” in the boy’s death.
