A Houston man is facing a murder charge after allegedly trying to dispose of a body by stuffing it into a box and enlisting a man to help move it. The discovery was made Friday morning in the Briarchase neighborhood, according to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.

The suspect, 36-year-old Steven Eberly, had reportedly hired a man to help him move furniture. Once the man started helping carry boxes, the "move" took a grim turn. Inside one of the containers was a human body.
