A 98-year-old Wadsworth woman who was reported missing on Monday morning was found dead inside her home in a "hidden location" on Tuesday.

Margaret Douglas, 98, of Wadsworth, was reported missing by an out-of-town relative who learned Douglas's friends had not been in contact with her since April 3.

Officers initially did a walk-through of her residence but did not see any evidence of foul play. On Monday night, another search was conducted and Douglas was found in a "hidden location," according to police.

Police did not elaborate on what the hidden location was.

The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation assisted police in processing the scene.

No more information was given, and police are currently investigating the incident.
