Acting East Cleveland Police Chief Kenneth Lundy confirmed that the remains were found yesterday, behind a home at the nexus of Chapman Avenue and Terrace Road, reports FOX8.
Lundy, who disclosed the finding to various news outlets stated via FOX8 News, "He did not have any ID on him," and currently, "right now we do not know how he died", the case is thus being handled with the gravity and caution of a suspicious death. The body was moved to the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office undergoing an autopsy to determine the cause of death, meanwhile, detectives are urging anyone with useful information to come forward, this according to a briefing detailed on Cleveland19.
