Thursday afternoon, police officers discovered a body in a wooded area behind the Walmart Supercenter in Douglas, just a short distance off South Gaskin Avenue. According to police chief Shane Edmisten, the body was that of an unidentified white male. He had been deceased for several days but there were no signs of a crime.
