Disturbing News Update

More about the body found over the weekend:

According to The Sun, the man died of blunt force trauma, and though the area where he was found (under the 41st Street bridge) is known as a hang-out for the homeless, police haven't yet determined whether the man found was homeless are not. Police are investigating this death as a homicide.

Here's the last two sentences from the article:

"He was the city's 225th homicide this year. For the same period last year, the city had 199 homicide victims."
