The Missoula County Sheriff’s Office says it is investigating after a deceased man was found at a rest stop east of Missoula on Saturday.
At about 11:36 a.m. that day, visitors to the rest stop on Interstate 90 near Clinton reported seeing a male laying in the trees. Deputies responded to the rest area and confirmed the male was deceased. Detectives and the county deputy coroner arrived to investigate the unattended death.
The victim has been transported to the Medical Examiner’s Office in Missoula. The investigation is ongoing, and there is no threat to the public.
The man’s name has not been released pending notification of family.
