Deputies identified the man as Jose Antonio Estrada Carrillo, 29. He may have lived in Guilford County. His last known address was 500 Jefferson St. in Kernersville, officials said.
On Oct. 5, a man told deputies that he had spotted what appeared to be a body down an embankment off Morrow Mill Road. Deputies checked the area and found Carrillo's body in the undergrowth.
His body appeared to have been there for a few days, and there was no identification, authorities said. An autopsy determined that he died from a single gunshot wound to the head.
Deputies interviewed several people who said they last saw Carrillo about four months ago. Investigators are asking anyone with information about where Carrillo was living to contact them.
Investigators contacted some of Carrillo's relatives in Nevada and California. Those family members will contact Carrillo's other family members in Mexico, officials said.
