Updated article- skeletal remains..

Decomposed Body Found In Willcox Prompts Murder Investigation

A tow truck driver’s grisly discovery along Interstate 10 in Willcox last year has prompted at least two recent search warrants as part of a homicide investigation into the death of a man reported missing in August 2019. The moderately decomposed remains of Christopher Daniel Mendez were found Sept. 24, 2019 under the Rex Allen / Fort Grant overpass by a tow truck driver working in the area.
