Firefighters in California made a shocking discovery when they stumbled upon two dead bodies inside a cave that had been dug by humans. This disturbing scene unfolded in a quiet neighborhood in Los Angeles, sending shockwaves through the community.
According to the Los Angeles Fire Department, the firefighters arrived at the scene shortly after 10:30 am on Sunday and were met with a grisly sight. The two deceased individuals were found inside a human-dug cave, surrounded by a mysterious white powder. The hazardous materials team and specialists from the Urban Search and Rescue unit were called in to assist with the recovery of the bodies.
The cave was located near a homeless encampment and was found on the 8700 block of North Lindley Avenue in Northridge, which is about 25 miles away from downtown Los Angeles. The fire department later confirmed that the area was safe and that there were no additional excavations or injuries. They also reassured the public that there was no threat to anyone outside of the immediate area.
The victims have not been identified, and authorities have not disclosed how they ended up in the cave or who was responsible for creating it. The white powder initially caused concern, but it was later determined to be a drug known as fentanyl. The Los Angeles Fire Battalion Chief, Scott Hilton, stated that the hazardous materials team was able to safely remove and dispose of the substance.
The bodies were both adult males and showed no signs of foul play, according to first responders who spoke to NBC 4. The cave was located near train tracks and was likely being used as a shelter by individuals, possibly including the victims.
The Daily Mail reported that the cave was discovered near Pacifica Senior Living, which is also near a homeless encampment. Police told ABC 7 that the victims were likely transients and may have died from a drug overdose. The exact cause of death is still pending autopsies by a medical examiner.
This unsettling discovery comes just a few months after six bodies were found in the Mojave Desert, also in California. It is believed that the deaths were the result of a dispute over marijuana. The circumstances surrounding the deaths of the two individuals found in the human-dug cave are still under investigation, and authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward.
