Officers were sent to the 400 block of Zona Court about 5:10 p.m. Monday on “an unknown trouble call” and “discovered a male adult victim who appeared to be suffering from multiple stab wounds” to his upper body, according to a Long Beach Police Department statement.
Paramedics pronounced the 60-year-old Long Beach man dead at the scene. His name was withheld, pending notification of his relatives.
