SPOKANE — The body found in a burning car in a Wal-Mart parking lot Monday is still not identified.

The identification will take several days because of the circumstances of death, the Spokane County Medical Examiner’s Office said in a news release Thursday.

Firefighters found the body shortly after midnight when they responded to reports of a car fire in the Shadle Wal-Mart’s parking lot. Witnesses heard at least one explosion.

The Spokane Police Department is investigating.
