Dead woman found on LA River bank in Long Beach

Homicide detectives are investigating and a dive team scoured the water after a woman’s body was found on the bank of the Los Angeles River in Long Beach early Thursday morning, according to police.

Police said the body was discovered around 1:30 a.m. along the waterline just south of the Ocean Boulevard bridge.

Authorities said they don’t yet know how the woman died.

Police said a vehicle was also seen leaving the riverbank area.

Investigators have pulled over a vehicle that matched its description and are interviewing the occupants, but it’s unclear if they’re connected to the body, police said.

Homeless people frequently take shelter along the riverbed, but police said they haven’t identified the woman and don’t know if she was homeless.
