Detectives are investigating after a skydiver was found dead in the front yard of a residence near an airpark in Florida, authorities said Saturday.
A man outfitted in parachute attire and gear was located just before 12:30 p.m. on the lawn of a home in Titusville, about 50 miles east of Orlando, police said in a statement. The Titusville Fire Department responded and said the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police on Monday identified the victim as 69-year-old Frederick C. Morello, of Ormond Beach, CBS affiliate WKMG reported.
The video shows someone from the skydiving center removing the parachute from the scene, but doesn’t make it clear if that’s before or after the paramedics clear the scene.
A bit strange if somebody came to take the parachute but left the guy in the yard.
Gotta hide the evidence that the equipment wasn’t properly maintained, I suppose.
