A man died early Thursday morning after he showed up at his girlfriend’s Otay Mesa West-area home bleeding, police said.
Authorities described the victim’s injuries as “suspicious wounds” to his upper body.
Dispatchers received a call shortly after 3:25 a.m. from a woman requesting medical help for her boyfriend, 38, who was bleeding when he came to the door of her home in the 3200 block of Caminito Quixote, west of Picador Boulevard, San Diego Police Officer Tony Martinez said.
Medics responded, but the man was pronounced dead at the scene, Martinez said. The victim’s name was not immediately available.
Homicide detectives were investigating the circumstances leading up to the man’s death.
“It is still early in the investigation, and little is known about the circumstances surrounding the (man’s) death. … It is unknown if (he) was injured inside the residence or elsewhere,” Brown said Thursday afternoon.
No suspect description was immediately available.
