RICHMOND, Va. -- A death investigation is underway in Richmond's Fan neighborhood after a man was found dead Tuesday morning.

Around 11:20 a.m., officers were called to the 2000 block of Stuart Avenue for a welfare check.

Officers arrived and found an unresponsive man who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Neighbors tell CBS 6 the building where the man was found is an apartment complex with six units and police have been focusing on one of the ground-floor units.

Those neighbors say they were shocked to hear the news because it’s a really nice neighborhood.

“The park is over here, nice restaurants and everything. I’ve never ever felt unsafe in this area. So it is, I don’t know what’s going on there, but yeah. It’s definitely shocking to see all of this,” said Celeste Womack.

Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers or detective N. Young at 646-3926.
