The woman whose body was discovered in a wooded area in the Martin Luther King neighborhood has been identified.

Caddo Coroner Todd Thoma used fingerprints to identify the body as that of 32-year-old Natalie Rattler of Shreveport. Dr. Thoma says a preliminary autopsy showed suspicious signs of a homicide.

Shreveport police say Rattler was reported missing on February 8th and detectives have been investigating her disappearance ever since. They believe foul play was involved in her death.
