According to
NY Post, the thief, 26-years-old, and whose identity has not been revealed, called the cops, who then arrested him.
According to
Fox, police say that the incident occurred last week and they are treating the death of the man as suspicious.
According to The
Telegraph, police say that the burglar, who was released from custody, may change career paths after making the discovery, as he is known to police in the area.
As for why the man turned himself in, a police source said that it could have been because he did not want to be implicated in a more serious criminal investigation when the dead body was discovered in the future.
