Police were called to the scene and found the 68-year-old man deceased. They believe he was homeless and sleeping rough. The man’s identity has not been confirmed.
The man who was arrested also hasn’t been named, but police say he is a local who is known to the dead man.
A couple of hours later, about 10.49am, police took the 37-year-old man into custody, but no charges had been laid as of 3.30pm.
The man was arrested on Crown Street, which runs through the centre of Wollongong, close to the train station.
A post-mortem examination will investigate the man’s cause of death.
Police believe there is no ongoing threat to public safety.
Anyone with information or was in the area at the time is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
