    A decomposed body was found near Decatur High School on Monday morning, according to multiple news outlets.

    The unidentified body, which is believed to be a female, was found by a rancher searching for livestock that had wandered off, officials told WFAA. It was some distance from the school and officials do not believe the body is connected to the high school.

    The Wise County Messenger reported that the body was found at 10:20 a.m. Monday on an adjacent property northwest of the high school.

    With the investigation ongoing, the body was transported to the Southwest Institute of Forensic Science in Dallas for further examination.

    The Star-Telegram reached out to the Decatur Police Department for updated information, but no one from the communications office was available for comment.
