From Niesha Lofing and Sandy Louey:
Sacramento County Coroner's officials have identified the body of a man found Sunday in his car in the Fruitridge-Pocket area as Khet Finh Saelee, 32, of Sacramento.
An autopsy has not been performed and cause of death remains undetermined, a deputy coroner said.
Sacramento County sheriff's deputies continue their investigation, which launched at 10:18 a.m. when deputies received a call about an injured man in a parked vehicle in the alley between Baker and Roosevelt avenues, according to a sheriff's department news release.
Saelee, who was in the driver's seat, was unconscious and unresponsive. Paramedics, who arrived shortly afterward, pronounced him dead at the scene.
Saelee was found to have a wound to his upper body when a deputy coroner removed his body from the vehicle, the sheriff's department said.
The deputy coroner was unable to determine if a gun or knife caused the wound. Neither weapon was found at the scene.
Anyone with information about the homicide is asked to call the sheriff's department at (916) 874-5115 or Crime Alert at (916) 443-HELP. Callers can be anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.
