Formally, the Butler County Coroner’s Office has named a dead person found close to Hamilton’s Garfield Middle School An official statement issued by the coroner’s office states that the man, 62, Norman Keith Jackson, was discovered on Thursday in the 200 block of North Fair Avenue.

The body was discovered when a groundskeeper doing standard maintenance close to the treeline saw it and immediately reported it to authorities. Available data indicate that the subject was declared deceased just before 2 p.m., after Hamilton Police staff answered the call.

More specifics about the events are yet unknown since the investigation branch of the Hamilton Police Department is aggressively following leads to identify the kind and cause of the death.

The Butler County Coroner’s Office said in the official announcement that the matter is still under investigation and has not yet decided on the cause or manner of death.
