Fast food doesn't may not have the best reputation, but a shocking discovery in the bathroom of an Australian fast food restaurant takes that poor reputation to a whole new and unthinkable level. And this time, the issue isn't even food-related. Police are currently investigating how a dead body lay in a fast food restaurant's toilet for three days before being discovered.

The man, whose body was reportedly discovered at the Hungry Jack's in a suburb of Perth on Monday morning, is believed to have entered the store three days before that on Friday, Yahooreports. An official statement from Hungry Jack's to Yahoo said, "Hungry Jack's is cooperating with all relevant authorities regarding the matter at its restaurant in Balga, Western Australia. Our thoughts are will all concerned."

While police are more or less sure that the man had entered the restaurant three days before his body was discovered, it's still unclear how long he had been dead before his body was discovered in the bathroom. An investigation to determine when the man died is currently underway, according to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. A police spokeswoman said that the death is not suspicious, despite very strange circumstances, and that a police report will be prepared for the coroner.
