Body Found in Duct at Phoenix School

PHOENIX (AP) - The body of a man who apparently tried to break into an elementary school was discovered Friday in an air conditioning duct on the school's roof, police said. The body at Sierra Vista Elementary School was found as a plumber investigated a foul odor noticed by cafeteria staff earlier in the day, said Roosevelt School District Superintendent Mark Dowling.

Authorities think the man tried to climb through the duct, got stuck and died. It wasn't known how long the body was there. "Obviously because of the smell, there are indications that he had been there for some time," said Sgt. Andy Hill, a Phoenix police spokesman.
Ewwwwww.
David Torres, who went to the school at midday to pick up his two sons, said he was surprised to see police and TV helicopters when he arrived. "I was thinking something real bad had happened," said Torres, who was leaving with his boys. "I got nervous, and I started to look for my kids."
"Then they told me it was just a dead guy stuck in a ventilating duct, and I could relax."
