Country star Tyler Rich ended 2020 with a horrific shock … he found a corpse.
Tyler was jogging in a park in Massachusetts when he came across the body of a man. The body was in a heavily wooded area and Rich at first thought it was a young, homeless man who was sleeping.
Tyler kept running, but got worried and pulled back to make sure the guy was okay. He explained what happened next … ‘I realize he’s not breathing and as I come out in front of him, all I see is a lifeless face covered in blood. Everywhere. Looks like a shot or a blunt force. At this moment I am startled and jump up the steep hill to find someone with a phone to call the police. ‘
He said he then came across a couple walking on the main road and using their phone to call authorities. After they got there, Rich gave his statement to law enforcement and the FBI.
Tyler says police came and they found a gun in the man’s hand, under his body, and concluded that “it could have been a suicide … Not that there’s any type of thing that can not help me get him like that. “
Although Tyler says it was a small consolation to know that the body was not thrown away by anyone else, he was still extremely shaken … ‘I do what I can to process it, the image, the reality. It was a rough 24 hours … Something I will never see or forget … He looked like a young, normal child. Someone with a family is probably wondering where he was. ‘
Tyler and his wife were in Massachusetts visiting family members for the holidays.
Cops do not release more information about the death.
As for Tyler … “Whoever you were, RIP friend.”
