This week, police were called after a dead body was found at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, the home stadium of the Tennessee Titans.
According to a report from Emily R. West of News Channel 5, a dead body was found inside a tent in one of the parking lots that surrounds the stadium on Wednesday.
“The scene consists of a dead individual found inside a tent near Lot M. A spokesperson with the Metro Nashville Police Department clarified to NewsChannel 5 that the body wasn’t wrapped in a tarp, but there was a tarp covering found near the body,” West reported for News Channel 5 on Wednesday.
While it’s a scary situation, West reports that there does not seem to be foul play involved as the deceased was identified as “an unhoused man” who had recently gone missing and could not be located.
“No foul play is suspected. Police said the person who died was an unhoused man who hadn’t been seen for a couple of days. Those who knew him were attempting to locate him,” West wrote.
Still, the situation still led to a lot of reactions on social media.

This homeless issue is out of control. Fyntnyl, meth, and the lack of self care lead to this. https://t.co/KaqczatzV3
