(KMJ) – The Fresno County Sheriff and Coroner’s Office needs your help to locate relatives of a man found dead over the weekend at a homeless encampment.
On May 1st, 2016, 30-year old Juan Carlos Guzman Arcos was found deceased at a homeless encampment located in a field near Lassen Ave. and Corte Way in Huron. He appears to have died from natural causes, but an exact cause of death is still pending.
Deputies describe him as 5’2”, 125 lbs. with brown eyes and black hair. He also went by the name of Juan Carlos Guzman Arcos. He was a known transient in Huron. Arcos never mention to anyone that he had family in the area. It’s possible he is originally from Chiapas, Mexico.
Staff at the Coroner’s Office have searched numerous personal records, but their attempts to find his relatives have been unsuccessful. Locating immediate family members is a necessary process in order for the Coroner’s Unit to release the body and allow the person to have a proper burial.
Anyone with information about Arcos is asked to please contact the Coroner’s Unit at (559) 600-3400 or email the Deputy Coroner handling this case at Loretta.Andrews@fresnosheriff.org
