Body Found Along Highway In Edmond
A man was found dead on the side of a major Oklahoma highway Saturday morning. The case is being investigated as a homicide.
A driver going north on I-35 discovered the body at about 4 a.m. and called law enforcement, Edmond police said. Officers arrived to find a Hispanic man dead on the shoulder near the Covell exit.
"This is unusual for us. This is our third homicide of the year... Edmond is very safe," said department spokesperson Jenny Monroe.
She would not comment about wounds on the body or why investigators believe the case is a homicide.
"We're in the very beginning stages of our investigation and so right now we're not releasing very much information, just trying to gather as much as we can on our end so we can try to figure this out," Monroe said.
The medical examiner will determine the cause of the death.
Monroe expects the department will release more information at the beginning of next week.

Obama says nation must do more for fallen heroes

By DARLENE SUPERVILLE Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama says the nation must do more than just remember its fallen heroes on Memorial Day.
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama says the country must care for the loved ones the fallen leave behind. He says the country must also make sure that all veterans receive the care and benefits they have earned.
Obama says that, above all, the armed forces must have the support needed to carry out their missions at home and abroad.
In the Republican address, Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe thanks the nation for its prayers and support following Monday's deadly tornado in his home state. He recalls past natural and man-made disasters in Oklahoma and says that while the state was hard hit, "we're not knocked out."
