INDIANAPOLIS -- A search warrant has been served at the Marion County Coroner's Office as part of an investigation into possible mismanagement of bodies and records.

Prosecutor Carl Brizzi served the warrant Tuesday morning. A grand jury is looking into seven cases, including the suspicious death of a man whose family was never notified, and whose body was cremated on orders from the coroner's office.

"There have been allegations about the mishandling of bodies, missing documents, missing cash," Brizzi said. "As opposed to doing a regular subpoena, because of the nature of those allegations, because there are missing documents, we thought that the search warrant was the best way to get the documents that we need and preserve the integrity of the investigation."

The search warrant is part of a five-month investigation. The coroner was not at his office during the search.
