207

A motorist at about 10 p.m. Tuesday ran over a victim who was found on the Maricopa-Casa Grande Highway just east of the canal by the feed lot, the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office reported on Wednesday.

Part of a car was found in the road, a witness told a deputy. Another witness reported plans to block the road “so no one can run over the body again,” a PCSO report states.

Vanessa White, a spokeswoman for the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office, said further details beyond what appeared in the PCSO police blotter were not immediately available.
