A man was found dead inside a Planet Fitness tanning bed three days after he went missing.
Derek Sink, 39, was discovered inside the machine at the Planet Fitness on Hardegan Street in Indianapolis, Indiana on Monday around 9am.
His family told police that they last heard from him on Friday before reporting him missing on Sunday.
They told WTHR that a needle was found inside the tanning room with Sink, who has struggled with drugs in the past.
Sink's aunt said that investigators were able to track him to the gym through his ankle monitor. It is unclear why he had the device on him.
A sign was placed on the front door as of Monday that says 'tanning is currently unavailable.'
A gym member, Elizabeth Len, recalled being greeted by a foul smell when she entered the building for her morning workout Monday.
'And I was kind of like sniffing, trying not to look crazy, but I was like, "Something smells really awful here",' Len told WTHR, adding that the smell grew stronger as she neared the tanning rooms.
Len expressed concern as Sink's body was found on Monday, despite the gym being open from 7am to 7pm over the weekend.
