Mummified body found in tree Trimming reveals partially mummified body in South Florida tree By The Associated Press Story Created: Apr 29, 2008 at 11:51 AM EDT Story Updated: Apr 29, 2008 at 11:51 AM EDT OAKLAND PARK, Fla. (AP) - A South Florida homeowner made a gruesome discovery after tree trimmers cut back the branches of an overgrown tree. A partially mummified body had been hanging in the tree apparently since last year. According to the Broward Sheriff's Office, the remains likely belong to someone who committed suicide. Foul play is not suspected. The homeowner spotted a skull suspended about five feet off the ground Friday after tree trimmers cut back the tree's branches. Glenn Parker of Oakland Park says investigators are trying to determine if the remains could be those of his former roommate, who disappeared about a year ago. --- Information from: South Florida Sun-Sentinel, http://www.sun-sentinel.com http://www.winknews.com/news/local/18365324.html
