Human Head Found in Bag at Bronson Canyon Park

January 18, 2012

Los Angeles police were called to Bronson Canyon Park Tuesday afternoon after dog walkers found a human head inside a bag, authorities reported. Two dog walkers discovered the severed head of an alleged homicide victim at about 2:30 p.m. near the 3200 block of Canyon Drive,  according to an advisory from the Los Angeles Police Department . The hikers had about nine dogs on the trail when two of the dogs started playing with an object in a bag. When the hikers realized it was a human head, they immediately notified park rangers. Investigators were at the scene Tuesday evening seeking clues and possibly more body parts, but suspended their search when it grew dark. The crime scene will be guarded by LAPD officers. The head appeared to belong to a male and was likely not in the area for long. The Los Angeles County coroner’s office will analyze the remains. Bronson Canyon Park is a popular recreational area inside Griffith Park. Trails in the park lead to a view of the Hollywood sign and also an area known as the “Batcave,” which was used in the 1960s television show  Batman .

Pinkberry Co-Founder Arrested for Alleged Assault on Homeless Man

January 18, 2012

A founder of the Pinkberry frozen yogurt chain was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport Monday for allegedly attacking a homeless man along the Hollywood Freeway in June.  Young Lee, 47, was apprehended at about 2 p.m. Monday after arriving from Korea. He was arrested on a felony warrant for aggravated assault “related to an evening attack on a homeless beggar…on June 15, 2011,” according to the Los Angeles Police Department.  Lee and a companion got out of the car Lee was driving on Vermont Avenue near the Hollywood Freeway offramp to confront the homeless man because Lee thought the man had disrespected him by exposing a sexually explicit tattoo, according to the District Attorney’s Office.  Lee allegedly used a tire iron to beat the homeless man, who suffered a broken left forearm and several cuts to his head, according to the District Attorney’s Office.  Witnesses were able to describe the Range Rover the men were in and its license plate, which led to Lee, according to LAPD Lt. Paul Vernon. Police did not identify Lee’s alleged accomplice. “Witnesses picked out Lee from a photo display and a judge issued a warrant for his arrest,” Vernon said. “When federal databases alerted detectives that Lee was inbound on a flight from his native Korea on Jan. 16, detectives from [the LAPD’s fugitive] task force and the FBI met Lee at the airport and arrested him.”  Lee was released Tuesday on $60,000 bail and is scheduled to be arraigned Feb. 6 in Los Angeles Superior Court on one felony count of assault with a deadly weapon.  Convicted in 2001 for felony possession of a controlled substance and a misdemeanor for carrying a loaded firearm, Lee faces up to seven years in state prison if convicted on the aggravated assualt charge, according to the District Attorney’s Office.  A boxer-turned-architect, Lee co-founded Pinkberry with Shelly Hwang. Its first store opened in West Hollywood in 2005 and the low-calorie yogurt chain quickly grew. There are two locations in Beverly Hills: 9409 S. Santa Monica Blvd. and 240 S. Beverly Drive .    This article was compiled with information from City News Service. Be sure to follow  Beverly Hills  Patch on  Twitter  and “Like” us on  Facebook .
