Dead man (68) found in a meadow: ‘Nothing ever happens here and then this’ | Inland

According to the police, there are suspicious circumstances and much is still unclear. A white sheet was placed over the body after the discovery. Barriers were visible around the site. Officers searched with flashlights for possible evidence.

According to the resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, the man found came from nearby Oisterwijk and rented the land where his four horses were stabled. The man came to his horses every day and made day trips to Oirschot, Boxtel and Best. “We greeted each other, and that’s about all,” said a neighbor. According to her, the man found is 68-year-old Chris. The neighborhood app is busy talking about the find.

‘Huddled together’

The neighbor and her husband walk a lot and ran into the man on Sunday. “We still said to each other, how strange he is sitting on his cart. He sat huddled. I don’t know, but I think he had a heart attack.”

“The body has since been removed and the forensic investigation is still in full swing. There may be a criminal offense, but until we have the results of the investigation, we don’t know what could have happened. All possibilities are still open,” said a police spokesperson for the East Brabant region the day after the discovery.

The neighborhood survey will take place on Tuesday. The police have not yet visited the neighbor and her husband. The neighborhood app is also still silent about the neighborhood survey. The neighbor did see a police car turning into the neighbor’s yard. “That is with the residents from whom Chris rented the land. I don’t know more, nothing ever happens here, it’s quiet and then this.”
