Oh, I have messaged the Hollywood P.D but never got a response. Everything is from news reports.
“When the tide came in he obviously was caught in the surf and tumbling, about a 35-year-old African American man, very well dressed wearing a sort of a casual business shirt, black pants,” resident Bill Renick told WTVJ-TV. “All of his personal effects were on him and that’s what we found unusual.”
I didn’t review details on the ME’s report to see what the estimated time of death was, but perhaps:
He walked out into the water some distance, shot himself and washed back up on the beach.
Gun is still in the water.
Yeah, I live in Hollywood. I know someone from the P.D., and the person is tight lipped, nothing to say! Geez. I don’t have a good feeling about this.
