An unhoused man was found dead Monday morning in a makeshift structure along an Oakland freeway offramp.
OAKLAND — An unhoused man was found dead Monday morning inside a make-shift structure on a freeway offramp in North Oakland, authorities said.
Authorities were trying to identify the man, who appeared to be in his 40s or 50s, the California Highway Patrol said. The CHP said a preliminary examination indicated the man may have died from a drug overdose but that an autopsy would determine the exact cause of death. There was no apparent foul play, the CHP said.
The man was found dead about 11:12 a.m. Monday inside a wood and tarp structure alongside the Martin Luther King Jr. WaY offramp from eastbound Highway 24, the CHP said.The offramp was closed approximately 40 minutes while the CHP investigated.The death is the second one involving an unhoused person in the same area in a month.
On April 3, a 53-year-old man was found dead in a sleeping bag in the 700 block of 52nd Street, near the same offramp. His cause of death is still pending and remains under investigation by the CHP.
