Man Found Dead in Lexus Identified as Israeli Citizen
LOS ANGELES — A naked man found dead in a Lexus sport utility vehicle outside a hotel in the Brentwood area has been identified as an Israeli citizen.
The death of Allo-David Giladi, 28, of Netanya, Israel, is under investigation as a homicide, the Los Angeles County coroner’s office said Monday.
An autopsy was performed Sunday, but further tests were needed to determine the cause of death, coroner’s Lt. Fred Corral said.
Giladi’s body was discovered about noon Friday by police officers who were preparing to tow the Lexus from outside a Holiday Inn.
The vehicle, which had been recently purchased, was been parked near the inn for three days.
