A transgender from Iowa was arrested after a dead body was found inside his car after a crash.
The Post Millenial reported that Myles “Margot” Lewis, 32, was arrested on Saturday after Lewis crashed on I-90 in Minnesota.
As authorities arrived on the scene, officers discovered a body wrapped up in a bed sheet in the back of Lewis’ car.
The body in the back of Lewis’ trunk has since been identified as 35-year-old trans activist Liara Tsai.
The Star Tribune reported Lewis has been charged in the “Olmsted County District Court in Rochester with felony interference with a dead body.”
However, the criminal complaint made no mention of whether Lewis killed Tsai.

Per The Post Millennial:
A trans-identified suspect from Iowa was criminally charged on Tuesday after being found with the dead body of murdered Minneapolis transgender activist, Liara Tsai, 35. Both the victim and suspect are trans-identifying males.
Myles “Margot” G. Lewis, 32, of New Liberty, Iowa, was arrested on Saturday around 7 am after Lewis crashed into a guardrail on I-90 near Eyota, Minnesota. Authorities discovered Tsai’s dead body in Lewis’s car while responding to the crash site. Tsai was located deceased on the back seat wrapped in a bed sheet, blanket, futon-style mattress, and a tarp, police said, per the Star Tribune.
Margot Lewis, 32, is the murder suspect. Lewis is reported in local media as being an “Iowa woman” but he identified as a “trans girl” on now-deleted social media. Background checks show Lewis used the name Myles Gerald Lewis in the past. He leaves behind a social media history of far-left posts common among American trans activists.
He interacted often on social media with Liara Tsai, the murder victim.
