According to the police, the deceased was spotted lying motionless in the street by a security guard who was walking home from work around 7:50am and reported the matter to the authorities.
No.13 District Officer Commanding, Senior Superintendent Obusitswe Lokae, said they are yet to identify if they will treat the case as a murder or death incident.
'Investigators are on the ground to establish what really transpired. We do not know if the deceased was attacked, beaten to a pulp by thieves, or by a mob of people because the incident occurred close to a speed hump which is one of the hot spots in the area where motorists are usually attacked and robbed by thieves.
'However, his clothes were (found) rather close by, ' he said.
Lokae stated that investigations are ongoing to establish the deceased's origins, age and are yet to determine the exact cause of his death.
