A sheriff's office news release said it was waiting on a report from the state Crime Lab before commenting on the death of Colby Wilder. The release identified Wilder only as a 17-year-old black boy from Hot Springs.

"We are not able to release any additional information at this time due to the fact that this is still an ongoing investigation," the release said.

Anyone with information about the death is asked to contact the Garland County sheriff's office at (501) 622-3660.
