Lubbock police responded to a report of a deceased individual at that location. That call prompted LPD to hand the investigation over to Lubbock Metro, the unit that handles the city's most serious cases.
No other details have been released. Police have not said how the person died, who they are, or what led up to the discovery.
For neighbors near Avenue S, that silence leaves a lot of open questions this week. An unexplained death this close to home tends to travel fast on the neighborhood grapevine, and right now there is nothing official to confirm or knock down. That alone doesn't tell residents whether there's any ongoing danger nearby.
The investigation is active. Lubbock Metro has not said when more information will come.
