"If these people didn't find it, it would have been there for a while longer," Gleason said.

The body was hanging from a rope. A small rock ledge was nearby.


A police dog was brought in to search the area, and forensic investigators checked the body and the immediate surroundings.


The man was wearing cargo-style shorts, a T-shirt and Adidas sneakers.


Anyone with information about the matter may call police at 800-898-8477 or send an e-mail to [email protected]."


The body was in a remote section of the park, and had been there awhile..

Are they implying that this was a suicide?

The article stated the body was hanging from a tree, if I read it correctly. I would think suicide was a possibility...
