YUCCA – A missing persons case has ended tragically in Yucca. The body of a person last seen Thursday was discovered Sunday during a Mohave County Search and Rescue operation.
Authorities said a neighbor last saw Constance Greene, 74, last Thursday after she returned from an out-of-state funeral for her husband. The neighbor checked on Greene Friday and reported her missing as neither Greene nor her 2012 Toyota Camry were at her Yucca residence.
“Search teams began a route and location search from her home to attempt to find the vehicle,” a news release said. “A ground search team located the vehicle stranded in a wash, but she was not in the vehicle.”
Greene’s body was subsequently discovered dead, about a third of a mile from her vehicle. Cause of death is pending with the Mohave County Medical Examiner’s Office.
