Pr. George's investigating man's body found in Bladensburg apartment

Prince George's County police homicide detectives are investigating the death of a man whose body was discovered inside a Bladensburg apartment Wednesday night, authorities said.

Bladensburg police were called to the apartment building in the 5800 block of Annapolis Road at about 9 p.m. for the report of a woman screaming, authorities said. When they arrived, the woman directed them to an apartment, where they found a man lying on the ground.

The man was not breathing, cold to the touch and suffering some sort of trauma to his upper body, police said.

Police said the woman had last spoken to the victim a day earlier and had gone to his apartment Wednesday when she was unable to reach him.

They said the man is 37 years old, but his name is being withheld until family members can be reached.
