Yesterday shortly after 2pm, a Georgetown University facilities employee found a man’s body in a tent just off campus. Though the man, identified as Clark Cavelli, was a homeless individual in the area, he was not a guest of Georgetown Ministry Center. The word on the street is that he spent his days in Rosslyn.
You can read more about this on the Georgetown Patch or Georgetown Voice.
