Man found dead in towed car in Allston, Boston Police say

BOSTON — A man was found dead inside a towed car in Allston on Friday morning, police said.

At 8:22 a.m., police received a call from a local towing business on Emery Road reporting a dead man inside a car.

The death does not appear suspicious at this time, a spokesman for Norfolk District Attorney Michael Morrissey said in an email early Friday afternoon.

The vehicle was reportedly towed from the TJ Maxx on Harvard Street in Brookline, authorities said.

“We are aware of and deeply saddened by this incident, and our thoughts are with the family and friends affected,” a TJX spokesperson said in a statement. “We will cooperate fully with law enforcement, and will respectfully defer any further comment to them.”

The death remains under investigation.
