One employee said off-camera that the body arrived by railcar.
Workers at a logistics company directly across the street from the warehouse also monitored the scene throughout the day.
"I saw a bunch of cop cars, and I'm like what's going on? And then I, you know, hear everyone start talking and they're saying they either found a head or just a body," one worker from the logistics company said.
According to police scanner alerts, the body arrived from Mexico.
