Homi­cide de­tec­tives are in­ves­ti­gat­ing the death of a man whose body was found off the Solomon Ho­choy High­way in Gas­par­il­lo on Sun­day, as gun vi­o­lence across the coun­try left two oth­er men wound­ed in sep­a­rate shoot­ings.

Po­lice said around 4.10 pm, a farmer walk­ing near the Na­tion­al Gas Com­pa­ny pipeline went to tend to his an­i­mals when he spot­ted a man dead in a bushy area near Har­mo­ny Hall, op­po­site the south­bound lane of the high­way. The man ap­peared to have been shot or stabbed in the face.

The farmer alert­ed the Gas­par­il­lo Po­lice Sta­tion, and of­fi­cers re­spond­ed. The vic­tim was not iden­ti­fied up to yes­ter­day evening.
