Man Found Dead Along Highway Was Missing Since Sept. 11

A 33-year-old man found dead along a central Wisconsin highway has been identified as Isaac Salinas, who disappeared September eleventh in Adams County. Sheriff’s officials say an autopsy confirmed his identity, but the cause of his death is still being investigated as the county medical examiner awaits test results. A landowner found Salinas’ body late Monday night behind a garage close to County Trunk “M” near Adams. Deputies say Salinas was last seen at his home near Friendship in the town of Preston, and he was reported missing last Friday — four days after he vanished. At first, officials called it a “suspicious death” but they did not believe the property owner who found the body had anything to do with it.
