MARSHALL, MI (WTVB) – A body was found in Calhoun County’s Lee Township Friday night but there is no official word yet if it’s 28-year-old Robert Jason Barroso who has been missing since December 27.
Detectives from the Calhoun County Major Crimes Task Force found the body after a person of interest led them to a rural location. That individual was arrested and lodged at the Calhoun County Jail.
Barroso’s 2006 Lincoln Zephyr was found in Lee Township last Monday and K-9’s were brought in to search the area but nothing was turned up.
The Calhoun County Prosecutor will be reviewing the information provided by detectives and charges are expected.
The Battle Creek Police Department Crime Lab is processing the scene. Forensic identification procedures will be performed at Western Michigan Homer Stryker School of Medicine.
No further information will be released prior to the conclusion of that investigation.
