Photos Help Coroner ID Body Found Along I-275

The body was found August 1 near the I-74 interchange in Colerain Township.

(Hamilton County, Oh.) – The woman who was found dead along Interstate 275 in Colerain Township has been identified.

The Hamilton County Coroner’s Office identified the body Thursday as Megan Leanne Anderson, 29, of Hamilton, Ohio, reports Local 12-WKRC.

Anderson’s body was discovered on August 1 by mowing crews that were working along the westbound lanes of I-275 near the I-74 interchange in Colerain Township.

Investigators were unable to identify the victim at the scene and even had a tough time narrowing down her ethnicity and age.

According to the coroner’s office, photos released earlier this week of Anderson’s clothing, jewelry and tattoos helped lead to her identification.

A cause of death remains unknown, and as of Tuesday no foul play is suspected.
