The Starkville Police Department is continuing to investigate the death of a Mississippi State University student who was found dead early Saturday morning off campus.
Teresa Veal, 20, was found by one of her friends around 1 a.m. in an apartment at Dawgs Landing, Oktibbeha County Coroner Michael Hunt said.
The cause of death has not been determined, but there were no obvious signs of foul play, according to an SPD news release.
Hunt pronounced Veal dead at 1:34 a.m. Saturday, but the time of death is currently unknown.
The body was sent to Jackson for an autopsy, and Hunt said he hopes to have results by Thursday after looking at toxicology reports.
The SPD asks anyone with information pertaining to the case to call 325-4135.
Veal was a marketing major and a member of Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for women at MSU.
Her visitation will be held Thursday at Natchez Trace Funeral Home from 4 to 7 p.m. and will be followed by a funeral service at 7 p.m.
