Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Investigates Two Bodies Found Near Dominguez Channel
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is currently investigating two separate death cases after two bodies were discovered near the Dominguez Channel in Carson within a two-day period. The first body, identified as a female in a state of severe decomposition, was found on Tuesday afternoon after a golf course patron reported a possible body floating downstream. The Los Angeles County Fire Department assisted in removing the body from the channel. On Wednesday morning, authorities recovered the body of an adult male near the flood control channel in an industrial area with shipping facilities and a train yard. While the two discovery sites are less than 10 miles apart, a spokesperson for the Sheriff’s Department, Kari Mercer, stated that there is no evidence connecting the two death investigations at this time. The Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau is handling both cases, with an autopsy pending for the female victim.
