Police have launched an inquiry after a body was reportedly found in a conference room at the headquarters of the tech giant Apple.
Reports said that police were called to the campus at Cupertino, south of San Francisco, shortly after 8.30am in response to reports of a possible suicide.
A spokesperson for the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s department confirmed that an investigation was underway but said officials had nothing else to say at this stage. The Santa Clara County Fire Department said crews were called to the scene but were then waved off and never went on campus.
Matt Keller, a reporter with ABC, said Apple was not yet not commenting “on the death at its Cupertino headquarters”.
It was not immediately clear whether the person who reportedly died was an Apple employee.
Reports of the discovery of the body came a day after Apple posted its first revenue drop since 2003, sending the company’s stock price down more than seven per cent in extended trading.
