A Mainer found dying in a car outside a Massachusetts hospital over the weekend was wrapped in blankets and duct tape.
Declan Perry, 27, of Portland was left in the back seat of a black 2019 Honda Civic outside the South Shore Hospital emergency department in Weymouth, where staff found him about 2:07 p.m. Saturday, according to the Plymouth County district attorney’s office.
Perry was unresponsive and declared dead at 2:15 p.m., the district attorney said Monday.
Boston 25 reported that there was a single bullethole in the Honda’s windshield. The vehicle had Maine plates.
Following initial reports, residents of a condominium complex on Driftway in Scituate told police they saw a man loading heavy blankets in the back of a Honda Civic outside their neighbor’s home earlier on Saturday, according to the district attorney.
A search warrant has been obtained for that residence, and several items have already been collected, the district attorney said Monday.
Perry and a person of interest knew each other, according to the district attorney.
The Massachusetts medical examiner’s office will determine Perry’s cause and manner of death.
The investigation is ongoing.
