Police sources confirm that the female victim, 37-year-old Kelly Koike of San Francisco, was discovered inside a duffle bag. At this time, investigators are not releasing a lot of details, but they are calling the circumstances suspicious, and homicide investigators are looking into it.
Rachel Abbott lives nearby. She said this is a usually quiet safe neighborhood along the North side of Golden Gate Park. "We weren't here this weekend, but we came by last night and walked past and we live across the street and, I mean, like, saw all the caution tape around and police and firefighters," said Abbott.
Koike's body was discovered just as the three-day Outside Lands three day music festival was winding down. At this point since so little information has been released it's impossible to say the grim discovery had anything to do with the music festival.
