    Man’s Body Found Near Mason Mill Park

    Decatur Metro | January 24, 2012

    I received a report from a reader that a Facebook friend had reported that a body was found in Mason Mill Park, north of Decatur, this afternoon.  This report in the AJC confirms it, though doesn’t provide much detail.

    The eyewitness report noted that “DeKalb police are everywhere” in the afternoon.  She goes on to note that “all was fine” at 11am when she went to drop off books at the library “kids playing, etc”.  But when she returned with a book accidentally left in her car around 2p, she was “greeted by CSI units, DeKalb police and a funeral home van.”

    The AJC report quotes DeKalb Police saying there was “no apparent cause of death”.

      I was at the library today and the staff said they’d heard the poor man was out walking and had a heart attack.

      That’s what the N. Druid Hills Patch says, too:
