Man, woman found dead inside RV in North Philly

An unidentified man, badly decomposed, and an unidentified nude woman were found dead inside an RV in North Philadelphia.

NORTH PHILADELPHIA - The Philadelphia Police Homicide Unit is investigating the deaths of two people found in an RV in North Philadelphia.

The pair were found on the 2400 block of North Philip Street early Saturday morning, right around 2 a.m., authorities stated.

A man and a woman, both unidentified, were dead at the scene. The man was found in a "severely decomposed state" on a bed inside the RV, while the woman, not wearing any clothes, was found on the steps of the vehicle.

Police wrapped the investigation late Saturday, but the RV remained at the scene, surrounded in yellow police tape and a foul odor hung in the air.

A woman on the street who did not want to be identified stated, "It was very, very bad. Bad, bad smell. When I came last night and I got out of the car and I smelled it, I wanted to throw up, that’s how bad it was smelling."

The woman added, "I think this morning somebody called because of the smell. Or maybe someone saw her [the deceased woman] in the stairs because they had the door wide open."

Officials have not found a cause of death for either victim and the Homicide Unit is conducting an investigation.
