The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office Office is describing the death as suspicious.

Sgt. Amar Gandhi, spokesperson for the sheriff's office, said the initial call was related to parking enforcement for an out of place vehicle, but after deputies ran the license plate, it came back as having been stolen.

When authorities did a vehicle recovery, they found a corpse in the back of the van.

Gandhi said deputies weren't able to confirm whether anything suspicious happened inside the van and are awaiting personnel from the crime lab before going inside it.

The California Highway Patrol came out as a referral from the parking enforcement division. CHP ran the license plate, and they determined that the U-Haul van was reported stolen out of South Sacramento on Thursday, Aug. 17. But it is unclear how long it had been parked at the Rio Linda location.

“When they got there, they did an inspection of the car, looked inside, and saw a body in the backseat, in that back compartment of the van. From there, they called us,” Gandhi said.
