A bullet-riddled car with Maine plates was found abandoned over the weekend in a Massachusetts hospital parking lot, police said.
Inside the four-door black sedan was a man’s body in the back seat.
The vehicle had a bullet hole in the windshield, along with blood spattered near the steering wheel.
Cops got a 911 call about the car, parked near South Shore Hospital’s emergency-room entrance, just after 2 p.m. Saturday.
Weymouth Police and Massachusetts State Police were calling the case an “unattended death.“
For hours, cops blocked off the entrance to the emergency room while they investigated.
The car was later towed away from the scene.
It was unclear how the victim got to the hospital and the driver was nowhere to be found.
In addition to the body found inside the car, a wadding of what looked like bedding or clothing was hanging from the opened right rear window.
Police had not said whether they were searching for a suspect who might be connected to the bizarre case.
The Norfolk District Attorney’s Office said an autopsy was to be done to determine the official cause of death.
The victim’s name was withheld, pending notification of his family.
