Costa Mesa police have identified the second victim of an apparent double homicide earlier this week in a bar.
Police said the second man found dead inside the gay-clientele bar was Jose R. Arriza, 38. His address was not known. Police said Arriza was not an employee of the Lion’s Den, 719 West 19th St., where his body and that of bar owner Lawrence L. Rohr were found about 4:50 a.m. Wednesday. Both had been shot to death.
Police said Friday that they still have found no motive in the deaths. A janitor discovered the bodies on the floor in an office of the bar, police said.
