Authorities say the victim, who was found with apparent gunshot and possible stab wounds, showed signs of a potential struggle based on his clothing. Investigators are working to identify the deceased and determine whether the homicide occurred at this location or elsewhere. Shell casings were found in the nearby parking lot, and surveillance cameras in the area might provide crucial evidence.
