Authorities Probe Death Of Man Found In Rancho Palos Verdes

RANCHO PALOS VERDES (CBS) — Sheriff's homicide detectives continue to investigate the shooting death of a 22-year-old man found Friday night in Rancho Palos Verdes.

The victim, whose name has been withheld, was found in Abalone Cove Shoreline Park near Sea Cove Drive about 9:50 p.m. Friday.

Detectives have apparently ruled out suicide because the young man had multiple gunshot wounds.

The body has been turned over to coroner's investigators, but it was unclear if the preliminary autopsy had been completed.
