Aurora police are investigating an unusual case in which a 911 caller reported seeing a mannequin armed with a weapon. But the figure was actually the body of a male who apparently died of a gunshot wound.

Police consider the incident as a “suspicious death,” according to a news release by Aurora police spokeswoman Crystal McCoy.

Witnesses called police at 7:38 a.m. about a mannequin in Side Creek Park, 19001 E. Colorado Drive, McCoy said.

But police discovered a body instead, she said.

The Arapahoe County Coroner’s Office is working on identifying the deceased male.

The department’s major crime and homicide unit and crime scene investigators are investigating the death.

Anyone with information that could help solve the case is asked to call agent Jamie Krieger at 303-739-6113. Tipsters can also use Metro Denver Crime Stoppers by calling 720-913-7867.
