A man’s decomposing body covered in wounds has been discovered wrapped in a plastic sheet and dumped in a shopping cart near a California supermarket.

The grim discovery was made after 4 p.m. Sunday outside the Food Maxx grocery store on Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway in Chico, a city about 80 miles north of Sacramento.

A passerby called 911 to report that a person inside the cart appeared to be dead.

Police officers found the cart near the front of the business containing a man’s body wrapped in a large white plastic sheet, according to the Chico Police Department.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.

Cops said the unidentified adult male had suffered visible injuries, prompting them to launch a homicide investigation.

Detective Lt. Brian Miller of the Chico PD told the station Action News Now that the cart containing the body had likely been in front of the supermarket for several days.

Miller also said investigators have obtained surveillance footage showing a possible suspect moving the cart.

That’s what you get for not showing your receipt when you leave the store.

Shopping cart, plastic tarp, decomposing body. Sounds like a standard homeless camp.

“… the cart containing the body had likely been in front of the supermarket for several days...”

How could a body go unnoticed for several days in front of a store?

Most were 5hitholes before they were renamed anyway......at least in my town it was.

An unintended benefit for White folks though.......it screams AVOID THIS AREA AT AL COSTS ESPECIALLY AFTER DARK!
