Lyons Police Chief Wesley Walker said an officer was on patrol when he noticed a vehicle parked on the shoulder of the road. The car was running and the doors were open, Walker said.
The officer checked the area and saw Shaw’s body, police said.
Walker said he believes Shaw was attacked by a pack of wild dogs that had recently been roaming the area. However, Walker said the investigation was continuing.
Police were searching the area for the dogs but have not found them as of Friday.
