California Highway Patrol officers, along with Los Angeles County Coroner's Office officials were both dispatched to the scene a little before 4:15 a.m., near the Soto Street offramp of the westbound lanes of SR-60. According to CHP, the body was discovered by two homeless men who lived in the same area, who told Caltrans construction workers that were working nearby. As a result, a Sigalert was issued for an hour's duration at 4:30 a.m., before it was extended indefinitely as the investigation continued.This is a developing story. Check back for details.
