WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - Authorities are investigating the death of a 20-year-old South Carolina man whose body was discovered over the weekend.

Lexington County Coroner Harry Harman says an autopsy is scheduled Monday for James Wilbur Lybrand III of Gilbert.

Sheriff James Metts says authorities found Lybrand's body early Sunday morning near West Columbia after a woman alerted authorities to a person lying in the road.

The cause is still under investigation, but Metts says deputies suspect foul play.
