UPDATE: Barberton police investigating suspicious death

By Beacon Journal staff

Police are investigating the suspicious death of a man in his late 20s whose body was found this morning behind a Barberton printing company.

Barberton Police Chief Michael Kallai said police received a call at 6:35 a.m. that the body of a white male was lying on the ground behind Barberton Printcraft, 520 Wooster Road W.

Authorities used fingerprints to identify the body this afternoon.

No identification was found on the body.

The Summit County Medical Examiner's Office is not releasing the man's name because family members have not been notified.

Pam Schleicher, who has worked at Barberton Printcraft for 20 years, said an employee discovered the body when he arrived for work.

She said police ``closed off everything,''when they arrived.''

His arms were over his head and his shoes and cigarettes were laying beside him,'' Schleicher said.

She also said the man's pants were pulled up, as if the body had been dragged.

An autopsy is scheduled for Thursday morning.
