LOGAN, Iowa (AP) — A 17-year-old has been arrested in connection with the death of a 5-year-old boy whose body was found a western Iowa ravine. The Harrison County Sheriff’s office says Cody Metzker-Madsen was charged with first degree murder in the death that was reported Saturday evening. The boy’s caregivers found his body in a ravine in rural Harrison County Saturday.

Metzker-Madsen is being held in the Harrison County jail under a $500,000 bond. In Iowa, first-degree murder is a Class A felony and is punishable by a mandatory sentence of life in prison. Authorities say the teen and the 5-year-old had been living together in the same foster home since early August. Authorities did not immediately release the child’s name. An autopsy is scheduled to be performed Monday morning.
