The body of a woman found at the beginning of November has been identified by the family.
On November 4, at approximately 10:36 AM, the Tuscarawas County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call reporting the discovery of a decomposed body on N. Orchard Rd. NE in Bolivar.
The remains were transported to the Cuyahoga County Coroner’s Office where the body was confirmed to be that of 27-year-old Katie Ann Fuller of Stark County.
Detective Adam Fisher said Fuller had been reported missing two months prior to being found.
“Katie had previously been reported missing to the Canton Police Department by her family and they had indicated during that time that they had last spoken to Katie around September 9th.”
The body does not appear to show evidence of trauma and the family shared she struggled with substance abuse. A complete autopsy, forensic testing, and toxicology results may take several months.
The Tuscarawas County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information pertaining to Fuller’s death to contact Detective Bureau Captain Adam Fisher at 330-339-2000.
