A 43-year-man was found dead in Sun Valley Tuesday morning, prompting a police investigation.
The original call came in at about 6:05 a.m. for a man down in the area of Laurel Canyon and Roscoe boulevards, according to Los Angeles Police Department Officer Kevin Terzes.
A canopy was requested to cover the body, he said.
The victim was later identified by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner as Erik Florer.
The scene was at an Arco gas station, according to ABC7, which reported the victim had some kind of wound to his head.
Investigators remained at the scene two hours after the body was found.
