Los Angeles authorities launched a homicide investigation late on October 29 after a woman was found unconscious in a blue sedan outside an apartment complex in Koreatown. First responders from the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) arrived at 801 S Berendo Street and confirmed the woman was deceased. Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) homicide detectives soon arrived on the scene, treating it as a major crime scene. Officers were seen canvassing the area and questioning residents in adjacent apartment buildings for any potential information related to the incident.
Adding a new dimension to the case, a man drove to the LAPD’s 77th Street station to report the homicide. Officers detained him for questioning and impounded his vehicle for further investigation. The suspect’s motives and connection to the deceased woman remain under investigation as detectives work to piece together the circumstances surrounding the tragic event.
