FULLERTON, CA. (THECOUNT) — Missing woman, Ashley Manning, of Anaheim, has been identified as the body found inside a U-Haul truck wrapped in cardboard and plastic, authorities said Friday.
Manning, whose age was not provided, was located inside the rental truck in Fullerton Wednesday, prompting a sweeping investigation.
The cause of her death is pending based on toxicology results, according to Anaheim police.
Anaheim police say the truck was rented in Anaheim, never returned, and then abandoned in Anaheim. U-Haul employees brought the truck to the Fullerton location on Orangethorpe Avenue so that they could take inventory of the contents of the truck, reports ABC7.
