Police in Minneapolis are investigating after yet another body was found in a public area, marking the third time such a discovery has been made in the past three days.
University of Minnesota police responded to a report Monday afternoon of a body of a man that was found in the area of 6th Avenue Southeast and Southeast Main Street near the Stone Arch Bridge.
On Sunday morning, Minneapolis Park Police along with the Minneapolis Police Department began an investigation after a body was found on the shoreline of Bde Maka Ska.
Investigators say the individual was already deceased when responders arrived around 11:40 in the morning near West 36th Street and East Bde Maka Ska Parkway, adding the person likely had been dead for some time.
The Hennepin County Sheriff's Office is assisting in the investigation.
And that incident came less than 24 hours after a body was found in a wooded area near East River Parkway and Oak Street near the Mississippi River.
None of the incidents appear to be related. Few details have been released about those cases.
