The Bexar County Sheriff's Office has opened an investigation following the grim discovery of a deceased body on the Northeast Side of the area. The finding was reported after an individual, walking near FM-78 and Beech Trail in Converse, encountered the remains in a wooded drainage space, as stated by FOX San Antonio.

Initial assessments appear to suggest that the deceased might have been homeless, aged somewhere between 20 and 30 years old. Deputies on the scene mentioned to KTSA News that there were no obvious signs of trauma observed on the body. As often happens with cases like these, the cause of death remains a matter that officials are determined to carefully investigate.

The identity of the individual has not been released. Authorities are continuing to gather evidence and piece together circumstances leading up to the person's death. The Sheriff's office is expected to expediently release additional details once the autopsy results become available, aiming to possibly better understand the cause of this tragic event. The public and media outlets are keenly awaiting for further developments, as informed by the Sheriff's Department to FOX San Antonio and KTSA News.

Anyone with information related to the case or who might have seen anything suspicious in the area of FM-78 and Beech Trail is encouraged to contact the Bexar County Sheriff's Office.
