Police found a dead body in a unit at Thornton’s View Point Condominiums not long after a neighbor complained of flooding underneath his baby’s crib.

The neighbor, George DeVote said he’s concerned for the safety and health of the residents of the Thornton complex after police found the body of a resident in the apartment across the hall.

“They basically gave us 20 minutes to pack what we (could) and leave and threw our stuff out on the street,” DeVote said.

Police entered the unit after one of two people living in the apartment returned from a trip only to find his roommate under 3 inches of water in the apartment. Officers who spoke to say they believe the man died of natural causes.
