Multiple lanes on the northbound 101 Freeway in Silver Lake were blocked for over two hours early Thursday morning as police investigated the death of a pedestrian, officials said.
A woman reported seeing a man’s body on the freeway around 3:12 a.m. near the Silver Lake off-ramp, according to California Highway Patrol traffic incident logs.
The man was a pedestrian, CHP Officer Villalobos said.
CHP later identified him only as a 33-year-old man from Bell, the Los Angeles Times reported. The death came the same morning as a man’s body was found with gunshot wounds off the 210 Freeway in Glendora.
The freeway’s two right lanes and the Silver Lake Boulevard off-ramp appeared to be closed during the investigation, video showed.
All lanes were reopened, CHP tweeted at 5:54 a.m.
