CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — A dead body was found at an office building in Cleveland Heights on Tuesday morning.
According to the city, members of the Cleveland Heights Police Department were dispatched to suite 214 of the Rockefeller Point building located at 2490 Lee Blvd. at 10:20 a.m. on Tuesday morning in response to a report of a "dead decomposing body." Upon arriving, authorities located a deceased male with no visible trauma to his body.
The man was later identified as 43-year-old Raymond Steele III. The Medical Examiner has ruled that Steele died of natural causes, as he had diabetes and was suffering from COVID-19.
It is believed that Steele, who had not been reported missing, passed away in mid-February. He had been leasing a suite in the office building and was found by building management after an eviction notice was left on his office door.
