As reported by"NJ.com", Tyrrell went for a walk through the Belleplain State Forest in Dennis Township in the US state of New Jersey on December 22 and discovered an illegally dumped refrigerator in the middle of the undergrowth.

The man from North Cape May found the decomposed body of a tattooed woman inside, he told the New Jersey State Police. Tyrrell then alerted the officers and directed them to the location using his cell phone.

Things became extremely curious when the police discovered that the person who found the body was a known sex offender.

After he refused to hand over his cell phone to the investigators and have his fingerprints taken, he was provisionally arrested. However, the 46-year-old has since been released due to a lack of evidence.

As the investigation is currently at a standstill and it is still completely unclear who the deceased is, the police are now asking for the public's help. They have published photos of the deceased woman's tattoos and pictures of found objects on Facebook.

The woman is said to be 1.55 meters tall and had two striking tattoos: a koi fish on her right shoulder blade and a large rose in the rib area. She is also believed to be either a white or Hispanic female.

Investigators also found a yoga mat and a necklace near the scene.

How the unknown woman died is still completely unclear.
