A man has been found dead at the edge of Disneyland Resort property in California on Sunday, prompting a police investigation and forcing pedestrians to detour around the blocked sidewalk. 

Anaheim police and Anaheim Fire and Rescue were called to the edge of the Disneyland property at 800 West Katella Avenue around 1.45 p.m, where paramedics pronounced the individual deceased at the scene.

The investigation centered directly beneath a large, arched blue Disneyland Resort entrance sign.

Police officers cordoned off the sidewalk with yellow crime scene tape and erected a black privacy partition under the gateway to screen the body from passing vehicles and pedestrians.

A beer can was reportedly found near the deceased, though investigators have not established whether it played any role in the death. The cause of death remains unknown.

Footage from the scene showed Orange County Coroner’s office personnel in formal suits loading a covered mortuary gurney into an unmarked white minivan parked along Katella Avenue.

Uniformed Anaheim police officers remained at the taped-off perimeter to document evidence.
