The body was found in the 12200 block of Montana Avenue, lying in a desert area that is also near the busy Walmart Super Center.

An El Paso police sergeant said foul play was not suspected in the death, but detectives with the Crimes Against Persons unit were nonetheless dispatched to investigate the discovery.
