Homicide investigators were handling the case since the body displayed what was determined to be tire marks across his torso, police said.

The man was believed to have been involved in a disturbance on Wednesday evening that allegedly involved pepper spray.

Police said they knew the man was rolling around in the field but were not sure how the man sustained the tire marks or how he died.

An official cause and manner of death will come from the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office.
