The Roanoke Times
The death of a female whose body was found this morning under a Roanoke bridge does not appear to be criminal, police said.
The body was sent to the medical examiner's office in Roanoke for an autopsy, which will determine the cause and manner of death, police spokeswoman Aisha Johnson said.
Police have not identified the woman, but said it is not Morgan Harrington, a Virginia Tech student originally from Roanoke County who went missing from a Metallica concert in Charlottesville Oct. 17.
A crew on a Norfolk Southern coal train spotted the body near the train tracks under the Wasena Bridge about 7:30 a.m.
