A body was found Tuesday afternoon inside a walk-in freezer at SunTrust Park, according to a Cobb County police spokeswoman.

The man was a third-party contractor and was found by a fellow worker, Officer Sarah O'Hara said.

When asked if foul play was suspected, O'Hara said: "This is still an active investigation so I am unable to speculate whether or not foul play is a factor."

She said the person's identity would not be released until the family was notified.

O'Hara said the Braves are helping with the investigation.

The Braves will play the Cincinnati Reds at 7:35 p.m. as scheduled, spokeswoman Beth Marshall said. The team is set to play the Reds on today at 12:10 p.m.
