Police identify man found dead in Cub Hill yard

A man whose nude body was found in the back yard of a home in the 2900 block of North Wind Road in Cub Hill on Saturday morning was identified yesterday by county police as 31-year-old from the Jacksonville area of northern Baltimore County.

But the cause of death for Christopher Agrow of the 2900 block of York Manor Road was unknown yesterday. An autopsy was being performed. The death was classified as suspicious, said police spokesman Bill Toohey.

Police were called to the neighborhood about 3 a.m. Saturday when residents reported a man banging on doors and windows. Police searched the area, using dogs and a helicopter, but did not find anyone. They were called again about 8:30 a.m. after the body was found, Toohey said.

Toohey said Agrow's body had some scrapes and scratches, but said there were no obvious signs of injury.
