THE body of a missing teenager was found wrapped in a duvet hidden in the bushes next to Thornton Road, Schauderville, on Tuesday morning.
Brent Felix, 17, was reported missing two weeks ago.
His body was found about 100m from his home.
Police spokesman Warrant Officer Alwin Labans said it was unclear whether he had been murdered.
“Police responded to a call from a resident at about 11am [on Tuesday] concerning a strange smell,” he said.
“A search revealed the body wrapped in a duvet in the bushes.”
He said Felix, who lived nearby in Jameson Road, Schauderville, was reported missing by his parents.
The postmortem could result in the case being treated as a murder.
