According to Calhoun Police Department Chief Tony Pyle, detectives from his department are investigating the discovery of a deceased female found in the cab of a semi-truck parked in the lot behind the Waffle House, 1420 Red Bud Road.

Found Thursday afternoon, the female is not a local resident, according to Pyle, but possibly part of an out-of-town driving team.
