A decomposed body was found under a bridge and near railroad tracks in Center City Philadelphia overnight.
The skeletal remains were found behind a fence and near the CSX tracks underneath the Market Street bridge around 1:30 a.m. Tuesday after someone said they spotted something that appeared to be a body, Philadelphia police said.
It was unclear the age or gender of the deceased.
Freight train service wasn’t impacted, investigators said.
The fence is on the other side of the popular Schuylkill River Trail.
