Angels Camp, CA...(Friday AM Update. A short press release was issued by the Angels Camp Police Department that restated what was known from being at the scene last night. A man was discovered deceased in the parking lot of Frog Jump Plaza due to a single gunshot wound in an apparent suicide. Notification of relatives is still ongoing) A body has been found in a white pickup in the Frog Jump Plaza in Angels Camp. Initial indications are that the deceased died of an apparent suicide. This may change as law enforcement officials can comment....
Our thoughts and prayers to the family members. Notifications have not been done at this time. We will fill in additional details as they become available.
As standard policy on ThePineTree.net, if there is a fatality, out of respect for the deceased and family members, we will not show up close pictures or pictures of a vehicle where a family member could identify the victim until notifications have been made.
The pickup presumably owned by the deceased is behind the police and coroner's vehicles.
Updates to follow.....
UPDATE 8:30pm....After speaking to Angels Camp Police Chief Dale Mendenhall on scene, this case is an apparent suicide but will be investigated as a homicide. The deceased was removed from the scene by the Coroner.
A shotgun was also found in the vehicle.
There was identification in the vehicle that matched the registration. Pending notifications of next of kin, name of the deceased will be released as soon as they know more.
More details to come as we know more.
