Original story:

Palm Bay police do not suspect homicide in the case of a dead body found Thursday morning in the parking lot of the Walmart on Malabar Road.

A Walmart employee called police around 10 a.m. to report a body in a two-door Honda Civic parked in the lot. Palm Bay police spokesman Lt. Mike Bandish said the body may have been there as long as four days.

He said a medical examiner was on the scene.

This is the fourth time in less than three years a dead body has been found in a Walmart lot or in the lot of a shopping center with a Walmart.

West Melbourne police responded to find a dead woman in a minivan parked at the Palm Bay Road Walmart in November. The first was a man found in an SUV at the Viera Walmart in March 2015.

In July 2015, the body of a deceased man in a sedan was found in the shopping center at A1A and the Eau Gallie causeway that includes a Walmart .
