Upon arrival, they found a storage unit door wide open, and a deceased male. There were also no signs of a struggle, and it appears to have been a medical issue, police said.

Detectives learned the man had gone to the storage unit on Monday to pick up items to deliver for his job.

His wife, who had not heard from him since that afternoon, grew concerned.

The man’s location was able to be tracked through his cellphone. That is when his body was discovered.

His exact cause of his death is pending an autopsy.
