Deputies found the house to be disheveled with blood everywhere, an obvious sign that a "violent crime occurred there," according to Nelson. They then discovered the body of a man in his 20s lying in the garage.
Police then cordoned off the house and got a search warrant.
"This just goes to show, you never know what's going on at any given time," Nelson said.
The case remains under investigation.
