The victim was identified by the Los Angeles County coroner’s office Friday as Robert Hollis.

Hollis’ body was found about 12:45 p.m. Thursday, when officers went to a residence in the 800 block of Glenway Drive to assist county firefighters checking on a senior citizen’s well-being, according to the Inglewood Police Department.

“Entry was made and IPD homicide investigators were later sent to the scene to conduct an investigation,” the statement said.

The coroner’s office confirmed Hollis was decapitated.
