The city's Fire Department contacted police just after 3 p.m. Sunday about a deceased person in the area of Bercut Drive and Bannon Street, police said.
Further investigation is required to determine whether this incident was a homicide, police said. The Sacramento County Coroner's Office will release the identity of the deceased after the victim's family is notified.
The area along Bercut Drive has often been dotted with tents belonging to unhoused persons, while the nearby American River Parkway and River District north of downtown have been the center of the city's homeless crisis for years.
New Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty has said the city's homeless crisis will be his top priority, and he plans to enforce an illegal camping ordinance while collaborating with the county more in creating shelter spaces and mental health treatment programs.
