CLEVELAND, MISSISSIPPI — The Bolivar County coroner says a preliminary death investigation shows no sign of broken bones or evidence of an assault against a Delta State University (DSU) student whose body was found hanging from a tree Monday.

The body of De’Martravion “Trey” Reed, a 21-year-old, first-year student from Grenada, Mississippi, was found around 7:30 a.m., hanging from a tree near the pickleball courts.

The county coroner’s office arrived around 8 a.m. and pronounced Reed dead.

“Based on the preliminary examination, we can confirm that the deceased did not suffer any lacerations, contusions, compound fractures, broken bones, or injuries consistent with an assault,” the coroner’s office said in a statement released Tuesday. “At this time, there is no evidence to suggest the individual was physically attacked before his death.”

His remains will now go to the Mississippi State Crime Lab for an autopsy.
