Sadly. sometime after 9 am yesterday, members of the Tulalip Police Department were alerted to the body of a female in the tidal area where Tulalip Bay meets Battle Creek. The body was turned over to the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office, which will provide official identification of the victim and cause of death at a later time.
Last Friday night, Marysville Police entered a 16-year-old female into a national database as a missing person. Marysville detectives, along with officers from Tulalip PD and members of the Snohomish County Search and Rescue Team, had been searching for the 16-year-old throughout the weekend, deploying two Search and Rescue K9 teams along with a Marysville PD drone.
Marysville detectives were alerted to the recovery of a body on the Tulalip Reservation Monday. Anyone who may information about this should contact the Marysville Police Department.
