Authorities Say Body Found By Busy Bangor Shopping Center Thursday Morning
An already bustling part of Bangor was a buzz with more activity and police presence than usual Thursday morning, as authorities were called to the Airport Mall Complex off Union Street in Bangor for the report of a dead body in the field next to the building.
Bangor PD's Public Information Officer, Sgt. Jason McAmbley said police were contacted about the body just before noon.
"Officers located a deceased male in a small field on the east side of the mall. The male has been positively identified and notification has been made to his next of kin.
An autopsy will be performed by the state medical examiner to determine the exact cause of death. While the investigation remains open, the death does not appear suspicious and there is no danger to the public."
The area surrounding 1129 Union Street was packed Thursday morning, with folks prepping for both the impending storm and the upcoming Christmas holiday when the body was found.
