CLAIBORNE COUNTY, MS (Mississippi News Now) -
The FBI and the MBI are investigating a suspicious death in Claiborne County.

A body was found on property located off of Rodney Road.

The Coroner, J.W. Mallett, confirms the man was found hanging from a tree.

The Claiborne County branch of the NAACP is indicating the man found hanging is Otis Byrd.

The FBI is only saying that it is a "man last seen March 2nd; and his family filed a missing persons report with the Claiborne County Sheriff's Department on March 8th."

They say the body was found during a ground search by the Claiborne County Sheriff's Department and the Mississippi Wildlife Fisheries and Parks.

54-year-old Otis James Byrd was last seen when a friend dropped him off at Vicksburg's Riverwalk Casino earlier this month.

His family and friends hadn't heard from him since then.

The NAACP has now sent an email requesting the US Department of Justice "join the current investigation of the suspicious hanging death of Mr. Otis Byrd."

The email goes on to say: "Mr. Otis Byrd's body was today, Thursday, March 19, 2015. After several days of missing, was found hanged to death."

The FBI says the body was found "a half mile from his last know residence."
