TROTWOOD — A body found hanging by a rope from a tree Saturday in Trotwood was that of a man in his 20s, a Montgomery County coroner’s investigator said Monday.

The coroner’s office is to do an autopsy on Tuesday and may need to use DNA samples to identify the body, which had been decomposing, coroner’s investigator Jim Fannin said. For now, the cause of death is listed as undetermined, Fannin said.
