Body Found in Trunk of Car in Anaheim Identified as That of Escondido Man; Mystery Surrounding Death Remains

A tarp-wrapped mass found in the trunk of an abandoned car in Anaheim Thursday proved to be human remains, officials said.

California Highway Patrol first notified local police around 10:45 a.m. about a suspicious car parked on Santa Ana Canyon Road, just west of Gypsum Canyon Road and the junction for highways 91 and 241, said Anaheim Police Sgt. Daron Wyatt.

Authorities have released the identity of an Escondido man whose body was found wrapped in a tarp in the trunk of an abandoned car in Anaheim earlier this week, but the mystery surrounding how he died and who killed him remained.

The body of Adrian Darren Bonar, 34, was discovered shortly before 11 a.m. Thursday when authorities were having an abandoned car towed along Santa Ana Canyon Road, just west of Gypsum Canyon Road, according to Anaheim Police Department Sgt. Daron Wyatt. But police released no information regarding a cause of death.


The body was wrapped in a blue tarp, as well as duct tape.

“Bonar is known to frequent motels in North San Diego County and Los Angeles County,” Wyatt said Saturday in a written statement.

Bonar’s Facebook page described him as a veteran of the U.S. Army.

A photo posted to a U.S. Army social media account depicts a soldier by the name of Spc. Adrian Bonar on patrol in Akashat, Iraq during a deployment in late-2007.

Wyatt said investigators want to speak to anyone who has seen the victim recently.


“Detectives are asking anyone who has had contact with, or has seen Bonar over the past few weeks, to please call 714-321-3669,” he said.

Tips may also be submitted anonymously to O.C. Crime Stoppers at 855-847-6227.

The Lexus sedan, which records show was registered to a woman in San Diego County was found under an overpass of the 91 Freeway Thursday around 10:45 a.m. Anaheim police responded to a call after a tow truck driver noticed something suspicious while preparing to haul away the car.

The car's registration expired over a year ago, but it was not reported stolen or connected to any missing-person investigation.

Stating the obvious: First order of business for investigators will be tracking down the owner of that vehicle first to ask her some questions.

It will be interesting to learn what connection, if any, she had with the victim, AB.

I can’t believe there isn’t more activity on this one.
When they went to arrest the suspect in Adrian’s murder they found another man who was being held hostage in the suspect’s house and rescued him
