Update 8/25/2025: The man found dead has been identified as Declan Perry, 27, of Portland, Maine.

A body was found in a car parked at South Shore Hospital in Weymouth, Massachusetts on Saturday afternoon.

The discovery was made just after 2 p.m. in a car parked near the hospital's emergency room entrance. The body was found in the backseat. State Police are calling it an "unattended death." For hours, police blocked off the entrance to the emergency room while they investigated. The car was later towed away from the scene.

It's unclear how the victim got to the hospital and the driver was nowhere to be found. Police have not said if they were searching for a suspect.

"We don't know where the guy is," said Geno Evano, of a potential suspect. He was visiting his mother at the hospital. "You know, I heard someone say that he hopped on a bus. He could have been out of here. I see Maine plates but you don't know where he is yet. Little scary."

The Norfolk District Attorney's Office said an autopsy will be done Sunday to determine the official cause of death. The victim's name is not being released, pending notification of family.

The car had Maine license plates and what appeared to be a bullet hole in the front windshield, along with what appeared to be blood spattered near the steering wheel. Material could also be seen hanging out of the back window.

State Police, Weymouth Police and the Norfolk District Attorney's Office are now investigating.
