After being called to assist ambulance responders with a deceased man, police realized the man had been shot several times and had multiple wounds.
A crime scene was set up and evidence was recovered at the scene, according to the report. Police also spoke with witnesses in the area of Shirley Road and Homewood Avenue.
Police did not give the name of the man who was found in an upstairs apartment of the two-story brick building, which Realtor websites show to be almost 100 years old.
