The body of a man found on the old Tiger Stadium site Saturday morning has been identified.

Police initially said Pesola likely was hit by a car at 1 a.m. and tossed over the fence and onto the field. At the time, police didn’t see the body because the field is dark, and the body was at least 20 feet from the accident. Buy valtrex online
