The Clark County Sheriff’s office is investigating an incident on the Bike Path just north of Washington St. in the city limits of New Carlisle.
New Carlisle Medics were dispatched to the bike path for “a man down, not breathing with blood coming from his head, possible DOA.”
Initial reports indicate a man had suffered a gunshot to the head.
Investigators would not indicate if it was a suicide or if foul play was involved.
The body was taken for an autopsy.
Sources tell the New Carlisle News that a male was found by a couple walking down bike path shortly before 4pm. The victim was off the path "about 20 ft with a single gunshot wound to the head with the gun in his hand."
The Clark County Sheriff's Office will not confirm or deny this report as the incident remains under investigation.
