Man found dead in suburban Newcastle park

A SEARCH for a potential murder weapon is underway at a suburban park in Newcastle after a man was found dead with his hands bound.

A dog walker made the grisly discovery at the Thomas Armstrong Oval at Wickham at about 8.20am on Wednesday.

The oval, part of Wickham Park, is neighboured by industrial businesses and a residential street, near Newcastle's CBD.

News Corp reports the man was discovered lying face down in the grass, naked from the pants down, with his hands tied.

Newcastle crime manager Acting Inspector Jeff Little said the man was a 52-year-old but was reluctant to release any other details until the man's next of kin were informed.

Insp Little said it was "early days" and would not comment on the man's injuries.

"We will look at anything that is at the crime scene," Insp Little said.

"I won't say what we are looking for at this point."

However, a nearby business owner told AAP that police informed him they were searching for a knife.

Strike Force Harrogate will investigate the death.

Police are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
