The dead body of a old man was left for several days - Corpse mistaken for Halloween display
|
| The dead body of a 75-year-old man was left on a Los
Angeles balcony for several days because neighbours thought it was a
Halloween display. |

The body of Old Men was found slumped over a chair on the balcony of his
third-floor apartment with a single gunshot wound to the eye.
Neighbours had seen the body nearly a week before but hadn't called police
because they thought the corpse "looked like a Halloween dummy".
Cameraman Austin Raishbrook was at the apartment in the Marina del Rey
district when the authorities were finally alerted to the body, reports the
Daily Telegraph.
"The body was in plain view of the entire apartment complex and they all
didn't do anything. It's very strange. It did look unreal, to be honest," he
said.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department are treating the death as an
apparent suicide.
