The Richland County Sheriff’s Office is investigating, after a body was found Sunday, South of Lexington, near the B&O Trail.
According to RichlandSource.com, the body of a white male was located, around 9 am, about 50 feet west of the bike trail.
Richland County Coroner’s Office investigator, Tom Stortz, said, the body had been there for a while and was frozen.
A person walking their dog found the body and notified Lexington Police, who then contact the Richland County Sheriff’s Office.
The man had no identification on him.
