“The family (of the person in the casket) has not contacted police,” said Lt. Tri Hoang of LASD confirmed to the Daily Caller. The department tweeted “Out of all the bad decisions you have made, at least make one good one & bring back the deceased person & casket inside the Navigator.” There were no arrests made and there are no developments at this time.
