MARINETTE (AP) - Authorities say two autopsies found signs of trauma on a decomposing body found last month in a stream in Marinette County eastern Wisconsin, but there's still no official cause of death.

The Marinette County sheriff's office released additional details Wednesday in the case of 28-year-old Eric Volp of Iron Mountain, Mich., whose body was found by a trout fisherman in July in a stream near Dunbar.

Autopsies were done in Green Bay and at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. They found trauma, including head trauma, but authorities are still waiting for final reports before issuing a cause of death.

Investigators say Volp was last seen in October after leaving a bar in Iron Mountain, Mich. Investigators in both Michigan and Wisconsin remain on the case.
