Body Found Near High School

A school official says a police liaison officer has found a body in an abandoned building next to a Massachusetts high school.

The Telegram & Gazette reports Worcester Technical High School officials say police were alerted but that a lockdown was unnecessary. The building where the body was found Thursday morning is located on city property next to a school parking lot.

Police spokesman Sgt. Kerry F. Hazelhurst says the case is under investigation as an unattended death. The cause of death is unknown and an autopsy is being conducted.
