New York woman jailed after body found at Arkansas farm

     (AP) – Authorities say a body found in a suitcase at a farm in
central Arkansas appears to be that of an elderly man who died in upstate New
York.
     Johnstown, New York, Police Lt. Dave Gilbo says police suspect the man died of
natural causes, but investigators don't yet know why his body was taken more
than 1,000 miles to the farm in Des Arc, 50 miles northeast of Little Rock.
     Arkansas State Police say a 56-year-old New York woman was arrested in
Arkansas on Wednesday night in connection with the case. State police say she is
being held in the Prairie County jail on a preliminary charge of abuse of a
corpse.
     State police say another man who is jailed in Arkansas on an unrelated charge
is also being questioned.
