Police have arrested a suspect after the partial remains of a woman were found Wednesday in a trash bin in Encino, Los Angeles. The torso of a woman was found wrapped in plastic in the parking lot of a commercial property at around 6 a.m. Wednesday, police said. The discovery was made by a local man who was digging through a dumpster looking for recyclable materials.
Three elementary school-aged children also lived at the address — all were found safe and well at school and were placed in the care of Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, NBC Los Angeles reported. 'When the officers responded they discovered a dismembered female wrapped in a plastic bag. It was just outside the dumpster, they confirmed that it was human remains,' LAPD Detective Efren Gutierrez told a news conference Wednesday.
