Authorities Locate Vehicle Sought in Nun's Death
Associated Press
NAVAJO — Investigators say a vehicle belonging to a slain nun has been recovered in Arizona.
The body of 64-year-old sister Marguerite Bartz was found after she failed to show up to Sunday Mass in the community of Navajo on the Arizona-New Mexico border. Investigators believe Bartz was killed sometime between Halloween night and Sunday morning.
FBI spokesman Darrin Jones said Tuesday he cannot disclose where in Arizona the vehicle was located. He says authorities are waiting on autopsy results and hope to release additional details surrounding the case later in the day.
On Monday, authorities asked for help from the public in their search for Bartz's vehicle, a beige 2005 Honda CR-V with a New Jersey license plate. FBI agents also want anyone who spoke to Bartz on Halloween night to contact them.
