When officers responded to the site at 10080 Garden Grove Blvd. around 4:50 p.m. they discovered the man, who appeared to be 18 to 25 years of age, had sustained trauma to most of his body, said Lt. Carl Whitney, declining to elaborate. The man was not carrying any identification. He remained unidentified as of late Tuesday night.
The construction site has a multi-story unfinished steel framed structure on the premises and is in a busy retail district.
Garden Grove detectives interviewed witnesses who found the body and are continuing to investigate the incident, Whitney said.
Anyone with information regarding the investigation is asked to contact Garden Grove police Homicide Detective Steve Heine at 714-741-5422.
