Dead Body Discovered on New Jersey Road Under Investigation

The Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office said a man was found dead along Sunset Road Monday night.

Officers were called to the area around 8:15 p.m. after receiving a report of an unresponsive man lying on the ground. They found a 41-year-old man whose identity has not been released.

Authorities said they have not ruled out the possibility that the man was involved in a hit-and-run crash. However, no drivers reported any collisions involving pedestrians in the area around the time of the incident.

The Burlington County Medical Examiner’s Office was conducting an autopsy Tuesday as part of the investigation.
