The Denver Post reports construction workers found a child’s body yesterday in Monument, Colorado:

“Two construction workers working in a vacant duplex called police at 4 p.m. Friday to report they found the body of a young child in the basement of a home at 764 Century Place, Unit A.

The identity, sex, race and age of the child has not been determined, Shirk said. The child could have been anywhere from 1 to 7 years old, he said.

“It was evident that the body had been there for a while,” Shirk said.”

The article says Monument, Colorado, has 18,000 residents and no pending missing child cases. If this death is ruled a homicide, it will be the first homicide in the town’s history.
