Body found burning on mattress underneath ramp on I-4

ORLANDO, Fla. (FOX 35 WOFL) - A body was found burning in Orange County in an underpass to Interstate 4 (I-4).

Police stationed themselves on top of the exit ramp from I-4 to Colonial, as the investigation was happening underneath that ramp. 

Orlando police say that the fire department was initially called to put out a fire. They discovered a mattress was burning and when they put it out, that's when they found the body.

Police also said that homeless people are known to camp out in that spot. So, the medical examiner's office was called in to try and figure out if this was an accident or some kind of hate crime.

The exit ramp was closed for a short period of time to investigate safely underneath it. It is now back open.
