Advertiser Staff Writer

The decomposed body of a man was found today in the brush on military property at Kalaeloa.

Honolulu police homicide investigators said there's no evidence of foul play but will await examination findings, which may involve an autopsy, tomorrow by the Honolulu Medical Examiner's office before proceeding.

Police have tentatively classified the case as an unattended death.

Police said a man looking for bottles and cans discovered the body at 9:45 a.m. and reported it to military police. The body was in brush off Roosevelt Avenue.

The military turned over the body and investigation to Honolulu police.

The ME will also work toward confirming identity.
