Investigation underway after person found dead in Weymouth hospital parking lot

WEYMOUTH, Mass. — An investigation is underway in Weymouth after a person was found dead inside a car in the parking lot of South Shore Hospital

According to State Police, just after 2 p.m., Weymouth Police informed troopers of an unattended death. Police say a person noticed an unresponsive man in the backseat of the car.

Once first responders arrived at the scene, they located the man who was pronounced dead.

Massachusetts State Police Troopers assigned to the Norfolk County State Police Detective Unit and the Crime Scene Services arrived on the scene to investigate.

A Boston 25 News Crew captured the scene. Pictures showed a single bullet hole through the front windshield of the car.

A yellow tent was set up around the car, where officers and the medical examiner could investigate the scene and transport the body.

One person at the scene, Geno Evano, says that he was visiting his mother at the hospital when his wife told him that there was a swarm of police outside the hospital.

“My mom came here around like four o ‘o’clock and then my wife texted me because she came here to check up on my mom,” Evano said. “She’s like ‘there’s a whole bunch of cops outside. What’s going on?’ So now I looked on the news and I seen this. So then I called my mom, and I’m like I want to get you out of there.”

Evano, shaken up by the ordeal, says he’s scared by the incident and concerned that the suspect is still potentially at large.

“You know, he could have been out of here,” Evano said, “but you know, you don’t know where he is yet.”

A tow later transported the vehicle away.

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is set to perform an autopsy on Sunday to determine the victim’s cause and manner of death.

As of now, the Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office will not release the name of the victim pending the notification of next of kin.

There are no further details as officials continue to investigate the crime.
