(SHELBURN) - The Indiana State Police and Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office are currently investigating the death of 35-year-old Rustin M. Rehmel of 115 West Broadway Street in Shelburn.
Rehmel was found fully clothed on the living room floor of her home.
Preliminary investigation reveals at approximately 2:36 this morning, the Sullivan County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call from 115 West Broadway in Shelburn. The caller friend stated the female victim was unresponsive. Minutes later, Sullivan County emergency services arrived and determined the female was deceased at the scene.
