Police Need Help IDing Body Found in Reston

Fairfax County Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a body found on a Reston path around 11:20 a.m. Monday.

A man was walking on a path near French Horn Lane when he saw the body of a man lying on mulch next to a swing set, Fairfax County Police said.

The dead man appeared to have been either coming to or from the main path and police believe he had been exercising. Police said preliminarily, they do not suspect foul play. The man did not have any identification. No missing person reports have been filed.

He was wearing black sweatpants, a long-sleeved black shirt underneath a gray T-shirt, black socks and black New Balance tennis shoes.
