He tweeted several photos of the scene, which show Kansas City, Missouri, police vehicles at the scene.
KCPD had yet to respond to a request for more information, so it's unclear when the body was found or how police were dispatched to the scene.
Forté said “no further details,” including the manner of death, were available.
