WETHERSFIELD, Conn. (AP) _ A burning body found near a strip mall Dumpster was 40-year-old Philip Hurley of Rocky Hill, Wethersfield police said Thursday. Hurley's body was found in a trash bin behind a video store on the Silas Deane Highway Wednesday night.
Wethersfield police and firefighters responded to a call about the Dumpster fire just after 8:30 p.m. They soon determined that it was a body that was on fire.
Hurley was a 13-year employee of the state Department of Information Technology and a part-time employee at a liquor store in the strip mall.
The body was burned beyond recognition, but police suspected it was Hurley, because he did not return home last night, and his car was still parked in the strip mall's parking lot.
Rock Regan, the commissioner of the Department of Information Technology, sent a memo to employees Thursday expressing his condolences.
Hurley died of smoke inhalation, the state medical examiner ruled.
Police said they are treating the case as a homicide. No arrests had been made Thursday afternoon.
