Homicide investigation underway after body found in barrel at Malibu Lagoon State Beach
A homicide investigation is underway after sanitation workers found a body inside a barrel at Malibu Lagoon State Beach.
The barrel or drum was first observed at the lagoon Sunday night. Sanitation workers spotted it in the water but - not realizing it contained anything of significance - decided to wait until Monday morning to retrieve it, officials say. They realized it was quite heavy as they dragged it to shore - and then the body was discovered inside.
How long the barrel was there - and the cause of death of the person inside - are mysteries for now that will be subject to investigation.Copyright © 2023 KABC Television, LLC. All rights reserved.
