Man Found Decapitated at Kaiser Parking Facility
By Olsen Ebright and Beverly White

A security guard Monday afternoon discovered the head and body of a decapitated man at a medical center's parking facility in Culver City.

The grisly discovery was made shortly before 3 p.m. at a Kaiser Permanente parking structure located at 12001 Washington Blvd. (map), said Lt. Ron Iizuka of the Culver City Police Department.

The victim did not have any gunshot or knife wounds, Iizuka said.

Detectives say initial evidence suggests the man may have died by suicide, adding that the investigation is still fluid.
