A man was found dead Tuesday in a small creek in a densely wooded section of the Woodley Avenue Park Wildlife Refuge near Sepulveda Dam, Los Angeles police said.
No identification was found on the body, which may have been that of a homeless man who lived in the area, police said.
The man, estimated to be about 30 years old, was found face down in about 18 inches of water and may have drowned after having some type of seizure, Lt. Jim Watters said.
A homeless man who lives in the area said the dead man had been prone to seizures, said Watters, adding that police found no evidence of foul play.
