Special agents of the Arkansas State Police Criminal Investigation Division are assisting Ashley and Drew County authorities investigating the apparent death of 41 year old Sam Arnold Jr. of Hamburg. A Monticello woman is being held in the Drew County jail and is being questioned in Arnold's disappearance.

Arnold's family filed a missing person report with Hamburg police on July 27 after he was last seen leaving work at Barnes Mill. Last Thursday, law enforcement officers located a site on private property in Drew County where Arnold may have been murdered.

The search for the remains of a body is underway in S.E. Arkansas and an investigation continues into the circumstances surrounding Arnold's disappearance.
