Dogs Find Human Head Near Famed Hollywood Sign

Severed Human Head Found in Hollywood

LOS ANGELES (The Blaze/AP) — Detectives are expected to resume searching an area of Los Angeles where two dogs found a human head in a plastic bag.

Police say two dog walkers with about nine dogs came across the bag on a popular trail below the Hollywood sign in the Hollywood Hills on Tuesday.

Sgt. Mitzi Fierro told KCAL-TV that two dogs began playing with the bag. She says an object fell out and the dog walkers realized it was a severed head, believed to be from a male.

She says the bag was visible from the trail and that it didn’t appear to have been in the area for a long time.

“The head appears to be rather new. There are not a lot of signs of decomposition yet,” Fierro said.

Coroner’s investigators will attempt to identify the victim through dental records.

Detectives are expected to search the area again at daybreak Wednesday.

    What got me was they said on the radio 30-30 news “they are treating it as a homicide” Uhh ya think? Either it was a homicide or someone just ripped their own head off tossed it into a bag and drove home! lol. Geesh..

      Sounds like another Arkansas suicide from the clinton years. Since the drug cartels don’t cross the borders (as per “the safest borders quote” from nutpalitano) it can not be a “mexican greeting card”

    California has become a sanctuary for illegal immigration. Liberals embrace illegal immigration and everything that comes with it:

    1. closure of more than 60 hospitals in CA
    2. illegal drugs
    3. slavery (human trafficking)
    4. rape
    5. destruction of public and private property
    and now…

    beheadings.

    All the violence and mayhem of Mexico brought to your doorstep by Brown, Pelosi, and Boxer.

      Yep, just too bad these crook politicians can’t suffer a little because of it instead of inflicting their idiot leftist agenda on decent citizens.

    There are 2 crimes against nature in this story by California Liberal nutcase standards…

    1. The insensitive and illegal use of a PLASTIC BAG. The Perp should have used one of those made in China reusable, environmentally friendly, bacteria breeding grocery bags they are forcing everyone to use. Maybe one with an OWS, anti gun, or breast cancer logos on it.

    2. The animal rights people must be livid about those dogs civil rights. Those doge need a team of lawyers to fight for money for theropy because of the mental anguish their owners caused by enslaving those dogs and forcing them to exercise against their will in an area known to be frequented by the dangerously insane … ergo…Hollywood California.

    Is there no justice for mother earth?????

    In the picture, is that a cross inside the fenced area? How did that survive in California?

      Not a religious cross, it’s probably a solar panel.

    I don’t get the beheading thing. It doesn’t offend me. Seems a little extreme, since We are so easy to kill. It’s not like we really have zombies. They can still DNA either part. My soul is still whole and still mine……..

      You just don’t want to leave those OLD heads laying around now do you ? That is so last week’s news. Most are listing Mex cartel – how about a Sharia “ Honor Killing ” ? Honor killing; talk about an oxymoron.
