Police first labeled the case as a suspicious death because they didn’t know for sure at the time what caused the man’s injuries.
The name of the victim has not been released.
Police have not provided any information on a suspect.
Anyone with information is asked to call the homicide unit directly at 816-234-5043 or the anonymous TIPS hotline at 816-474-8477.
