3 bed, 1 bath, 1 body: Landlord finds dead man during tour 4

ATLANTA — Atlanta police say a landlord discovered a man's body while showing a home to prospective tenants.

Salvatore DiMauro tells news outlets that he was going through the rooms Monday moing with a potential tenant when he made the grisly find behind the southwest Atlanta house at 666 Quaker Street.

Police say the person had been shot to death.

A neighbor says she heard two gunshots late Sunday night but did not see anything.

Authorities are withholding the identity of the victim until his family is notified.
