It’s been 11 days since deer hunters found the body of a young female in Fond du Lac County. Authorities still have no idea who she is.

Sheriff Mick Fink said at least 18 other law enforcement agencies have contacted his department to see if the description matches any of their missing persons. But it hasn’t happened yet.

Fink says his department will do whatever it takes to identify the person.

She’s described as either a young adult or a teenage girl.

Her body was found Nov. 23 in a creek in the town of Ashford, about 17 miles south of Fond du Lac.

The sheriff said it might have been in the water for several months.

Hunters found three sets of remains statewide during the recent gun deer season.

Dodge County hunters discovered the remains of a former Brookfield man who committed suicide.

Brown County hunters found the skull of a former Allouez woman shot to death and buried in a shallow grave near Morrison five years ago. The alleged shooter later hung himself in prison.
