A death investigation is currently in progress at a bustling Pasadena Metro station. According to ABC7, the somber discovery occurred on the platform of the A Line at the Memorial Park Station on Holly Street. Local authorities are on the scene, and although a body was visibly present on the platform, details regarding the cause of death or the identity of the deceased are presently undisclosed.

In a statement obtained by The Los Angeles Times, Pasadena Police Department spokesperson Matt Campeau revealed that the dead individual is a Black man in his 40s. The call to the police came in at 4 a.m., alerting them of the incident. The case is set to be closely examined by the department's robbery and homicide unit, in an attempt to thoroughly understand just how the man came to be found deceased.

No immediate suspects have been identified and foul play has not been ruled out, said Campeau, as per The Los Angeles Times. The coroner's office was promptly called to the scene and has since taken custody of the body for further examination. Despite the gravity of the situation, details remain vague, and the police urge anyone with pertinent information to come forward as part of the ongoing investigation.
