COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Colorado Springs Police detectives are looking through a house in an investigation that may be connected to a body found on a trail near Gold Camp Road early Wednesday morning.

Officers said they are investigating a home in the 1100 block of Samuel Point. They haven't confirmed the search is related to the body found on Captain Jack's Trail around 2 a.m. Wednesday, but The Gazette said officers are looking into the disappearance of an elderly woman at that address in the southwest part of Colorado Springs.

The body found was burned so badly, they were unable to initially determine the gender or age of the remains.
