DETROIT (AP) - Police say three men have been arrested near a burned-out house on Detroit's northeast side where a man's body was found.

Eastpointe Police Chief Mike Lauretti said the body was discovered Thursday morning by members of a task force investigating the disappearance of 21-year-old Matt Landry. The man from Macomb County's Chesterfield Township has been missing since Sunday.

Lauretti says the body in the house had a single gunshot wound.

Detroit police Sgt. Eren Stephens Bell described the body as that of a white man. His identity has not been released.

Lauretti says investigators have been searching vacant houses in the Detroit neighborhood. Landry's vehicle was found about two blocks away.
