An unidentified man's body was discovered in the Parque das Nações Indígenas in Campo Grande on the morning of Monday, the 16th. The body was located in an area of dense vegetation, and the cause of death has not yet been confirmed. Local police have opened an investigation into what they are categorizing as a suspicious death. Preliminary reports from authorities suggest that the victim may have been homeless, as the body showed signs of having been there for several days due to decomposition.

The grim discovery was made by two street vendors operating near the intersection of Avenida Antônio Maria Coelho and Avenida Nelly Martins, directly opposite the park. They noticed the motionless body while crossing the fence and approached the creek’s edge, leading them to alert their supervisor. Subsequently, the police were notified, and officers arrived to confirm the man's death, initiating an investigation into the circumstances.

Authorities are currently working to identify the man and determine the cause of death, with the initial suspicion leaning towards a homeless individual, highlighting the ongoing issues faced by vulnerable populations in urban areas like Campo Grande. As the investigation progresses, it may shed light on broader social issues, including homelessness and public safety in public spaces.
