The road was closed from around 6.45am while forensic experts examined the scene.
Local rumours suggest the incident may be related to an attempted burglary which went wrong.
One resident, who did not want to be named, said: "It's very strange. I didn't see him being put into the ambulance, but it sounds like he was in a bad way.
"Someone said he had gone through a window. Another said it was a skylight. No one really knows what is going on at the moment."
