After the discovery of the body, three teams of firefighters were called to the scene, who opened the dinosaur's leg and used a crane to pick up the corpse. Local media reported that the man, who has not been named, was trapped upside down after falling into a hollow statue while trying to reach a phone he had dropped inside.

Police are awaiting the results of an autopsy and have not yet released the exact cause of the man's death or how he ended up inside the statue. The statue itself, which was installed to advertise a local movie theater, was removed from the street.
