Missing Person Death

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.
