''LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) - No arrests have been made yet in the homicide investigation of a decomposing body found last week in the trunk of a car, Metro Police told FOX5 Monday.

Police also said that investigators are working to answer one very important question: who the car was registered to. The investigation is ongoing.

The body, which police said belonged to a male, was found in the trunk of a white BMW Friday, according to Metro. The car was parked in a private parking lot at an apartment complex, just steps from the Budget Suite of America’s swimming pool.

Detectives have been surveying the complex and asking tenants questions about what they may have seen or heard, as well as reviewing surveillance video.''
''
FOX5 spoke with several tenants on Monday, and an employee of the complex told us that police informed them that there was no current threat to the tenants because the crime had been committed elsewhere and that the body was brought and left there''

who the car was registered to.

It's totally insane that in 2022 when everything is digital, they can't determine this in seconds?

It's totally insane that in 2022 when everything is digital, they can't determine this in seconds?

The car may not have had a current registration, or maybe it had a salvage title. Or it might have been an older model. BMWs built before the 1980s had simple numeric serial numbers, possibly not as compatible with modern digital databases.

What an idiot. Horror details after body found in car trunk

The car was dropped off by a tow truck that morning but seen in Phoenix on surveillance footage on June 4. It was registered to Danh in Cerritos, California, but listed in Haggi's missing person's report, according to FOX 5.

The affidavit claimed that Haggi and Danh co-owned a business: Elite360.

Danh allegedly had a gambling problem and asked Haggi for money before the man disappeared, police said.

Authorities claim in the arrest affidavit that Danh contacted NV Cars tow truck company on August 19, asking them to tow the vehicle, as he said he was staying at an Airbnb and was moving to the Budget Suites, but his wife lost the car key.

When questioned about the smell coming from the car by the tow employee, Danh allegedly said it was from the trash bags.

He then reportedly directed the driver to drop him off at a casino, before taking a Lyft to a rental car business.

Man arrested in connection with body in trunk was victim’s business partner

Tony Danh, who was arrested in connection with the death of Amir Haggi, was a co-owner with Haggi of a business in Phoenix, Arizona.

The BMW was registered to Tony Danh, 37, and paperwork with his name was found in the glove compartment, according to Las Vegas police.

Police said that someone tried to take over Haggi’s finances on June 6 after police found that his phone received messages with codes from Google, PayPal, CashApp and his bank’s fraud services.

Cleaning supplies, roofing tar, paint rollers, paint trays, rubber medical gloves, a performance respirator and several trash bags were found in the car with the body. One of the trash bags had the clothes that Haggi was last seen wearing and another contained a pair of pants with Danh’s last name written on a barcode sticker on the waistband.

Police found a receipt from a Walmart in City of Industry, California, for the items and a burner phone in the front of the car. Surveillance from the Walmart showed a man reportedly matching Danh’s appearance buying the items and a car matching the BMW leaving soon after, according to police.
