lincoln-policeLINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Authorities have released the name of a 53-year-old man whose body was found on a bike path under a bridge in Lincoln.

Lincoln police identified the man as Robbie Young, a transient. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday.

Lincoln Police Chief Jim Peschong (peh-SHAWNG’) says investigators are treating the case as a possible homicide. Peschong says Young had checked in and reserved a bed on Sunday night at the People’s City Mission, which provides housing and other services for the poor and homeless. Young’s body was found by a jogger early Monday morning.
