(L.A.) Javier Bautista-Reyes, 45, Died in a Lake
Case Number: 2022-06994
Los Angeles County is reporting the death of a 45-year-old Hispanic male that occurred in a lake.
The coroner’s office has identified the man as Javier Bautista-Reyes.
Manner of Death: Accident
Cause of Death: Drowning
RIP JAVIER BAUTISTA-REYES (March 8, 1977 – July 6, 2022)
Formal pronouncement of death was made on Wednesday at 9:48 a.m.
The incident location was the SoFi Stadium’s Lake at 1001 Stadium Dr, Inglewood, CA 90301. The decedent was found at the bottom of the lake, which is about 15 feet deep.
Security footage shows him basically trespassing into the property at around 6:00 a.m. and then entering the lake of his own accord. The determination that this was an accident instead of a suicide was made months after his death.
Apparently, he was neither on drugs nor drunk.
