Los Angeles Police are investigating the suspicious death of a 19-year-old man in Koreatown late last month, with his family believing the cause of death was an assault.
Jun Hee Han suffered head injuries in the fall and was taken to a Whittier hospital for treatment on July 25, the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement.
“According to family members, the fall was the result of an assault that occurred in late July in the 700 block of South Harvard Boulevard,” the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement.

Detectives have denied the family’s claim that Han’s death was the result of an attack but are working to gather evidence and witness statements.
“We intend to provide additional information once more information becomes available and the sequence of events leading to Han Jun-hee’s death becomes clear,” police said. “Until then, we must refrain from making any further comments about this tragic incident until the facts are clear.”
