Police Initiate Unattended Death Investigation

Hawai’i Island police have initiated an unattended death investigation after human remains were discovered on a property located in the Hawaiian Ocean View Estates subdivision.

On Tuesday, April 23, 2024 shortly before 12:40 p.m., detectives assigned to the Area II Criminal Investigations Section responded to a property located on the 92-8700 block of Lotus Blossom Lane for a report of a decomposed body on the property.  Upon their arrival, they discovered the body of a male which had injuries that were suspicious in nature.  Due to the body being in advanced stages of decomposition, the identity of the male and the exact cause of death could not be determined. 

An autopsy has been scheduled to determine the exact cause of death.
