AUSTIN — The Mower County Sheriff’s Department has announced that it has arrested a suspect in connection to a homicide victim discovered Sunday morning south of Austin.

Sheriff Terese Amazi confirmed that Mike McIntosh has been arrested for second-degree murder in the death of 39-year-old David Madison. No further details of the arrest have been made available.

Madison’s body was discovered last Sunday morning in the Cedar River along Highway 105. It’s still unclear as to where the killing took place.

The sheriff’s office narrowed down that the last time Madison was seen alive was between 10 and 11:30 p.m. last Saturday night in the downtown Austin area.

On Thursday, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension investigated a residence in the 400 block of South Main Street that was tied to the homicide case, between noon and 7 p.m., taking photographs and measurements of the property as well as collecting evidence from a trash bin.

A second home at the corner of Eighth Street Northeast and Third Avenue Northeast was also taped off by the sheriff’s department. It too had been related to the case.
