Police have identified the body of a man found near a dirt road in Trabuco Canyon Friday as Damien McKenna, 19.
No address was released for McKenna. County coroner’s officials would only say he has relatives in Mission Viejo.
McKenna was found by a farm worker in a brushy area about 30 feet from Trabuco Creek Road at about 7:25 a.m Friday.
Sheriff’s Department investigators are treating McKenna’s death as a homicide. He suffered head injuries, but no autopsy has yet been performed to determine the cause of death, a coroner’s spokesman said Monday.
