Sunday afternoon the King County Sheriff’s Office issued a couple of short updates concerning the dead body that was found in Sunset Park last week by a jogger. Detectives are still asking that anyone with any information please contact them immediately.

The license plate number of the truck in question is C49148B. This vehicle is currently suspected to be related to this crime.
Secondly, the body has been identified as a being a Hispanic male in his 40s-50s. While it was instantly released that the body discovered was male these new details should help to narrow the focus on identifying the victim.

The body was discovered near the S. 138 St. and 16 Ave. S. side of the park. Police announced at the scene that they are treating this investigation as a homicide. Spokesmen for the King County Sheriff’s Office have not been willing to divulge exactly what it is that has lead them to believe this is a homicide.
