On June 5, 2005, about 2:00 p.m., residents living in the 13400 block of Goleta Street became concerned for their neighbor’s well-being after daily newspapers were left outside and the weekly trash cans were not taken out for pick up. Distressed neighbors then called police after finding their neighbor, 71-year-old George Meyer, dead in his home.
Officers arrived at Mr. Meyer’s home and found him lying on the utility room floor. Evidence at the scene indicated that he died due to multiple blunt trauma injuries.
