The vehicle was about to be crushed so it could be recycled.

“The seats were laid down. He was in a sleeping bag laid out towards the back again of the car or truck, feet in direction of the front.”

After police processed the automobile, it was returned to the vehicle shop.

Smith told KOMO that law enforcement normally inspect abandoned autos and tag them.

“Yes, there was a body of a deceased male discovered in a auto as soon as it arrived at our garden,” the store stated in a Facebook post.
