A body was discovered inside the DeKalb County landfill Friday morning , authorities said.
DeKalb police and members of the department’s crime scene unit are at the Seminole Road Landfill along Clevemont Road in Ellenwood.
Police said the body of an unidentified black man was found after a county sanitation driver unknowingly transported the body from one of several dumpsters on his morning route to the landfill.
Police have not said how the man died, but they told Channel 2 Action News they’ve ruled the incident as a homicide. The county’s medical examiner will determine the cause of death.
