A boy in the US state of Ohio has found the mummified body of a man hanging in a closet of a house he thought had been abandoned.
The coroner's office in Dayton says the body of 53-year-old Edward Brunton looked like a mummy because it was reserved in his home's cold, dark conditions.
Brunton was homeless before inheriting money from his mother to buy the house in October 2009 and probably died soon after that.
His death has been ruled a suicide.
