Detroit Police are on the scene after a landlord discovered a man’s body inside a home this morning.

A former tenant says he moved out of the home on Monday, and it was only vacant for 2 days. Since the discovery, neighbors tell Action News they are stunned given how safe the neighborhood is. 

So far, detectives have not said if the body has been identified. Neighbors say they also believe a fire may have been set inside the home.
