AMERICUS —
The body of a 37-year-old woman has been sent to the state crime lab for autopsy.
Sumter County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Col. Eric Bryant said the call came about 1:55 p.m. Wednesday reporting a cardiac arrest.
Upon arrival by first responders, they found the young woman unresponsive and after the coroner arrived, it was determined that she was dead.
Bryant identified the woman as Amy Gaultney and said she was at the residence of her boyfriend at 587 Ga. Highway 30 West, Lot B.
“Based on conversations with him and with the coroner, we made the decision to allow the GBI (Georgia Bureau of Investigation) to assist us in processing the scene. We do not suspect foul play, however,” Bryant said.
