Officials hope someone can help identity the man via two tattoos on his body.

The ME's office released photos of a tattoo of a large cross with hands in prayer and the word "We" in the center of his back and a tattoo of roses with other plants and flowers on his lower left arm.

The man is 6'1" and an estimated 114 pounds. His race was unknown.
