Dead body found in Caterpillar Mossville parking lot

MOSSVILLE, Ill. – Peoria County Coroner Jamie Harwood says a forensic autopsy on the body of a man found yesterday in the parking lot of Caterpillar’s Mossville plant was inconclusive.

Harwood says David Pruski, 36, was believed to be homeless, but found in his car sometime Sunday. He says Pruski was pronounced dead at 2:24 p.m. but it’s possible the man’s body was there for several days before being discovered.

There were no signs of trauma and no obvious injuries.

Harwood says further studies and a toxicology exam are pending.
