Vista Man Found Beaten to Death in His Home
A 46-year-old Vista man was found beaten to death Thursday, a Sheriff’s Department spokesman said.
The body of Robert Wesley Frazier was found with several blows to the head in the apartment on Palomar Place where Frazier lived, spokesman Ed Lynch said.
Deputies investigating a missing-person report by Cheron Frazier, the victim’s estranged wife, found the body at 3:45 p.m. Cheron Frazier told deputies that Frazier had been missing since Monday, Lynch said.
Deputy Coroner George Dickason said the cause of death will not be known until after an autopsy is completed today.
Lynch said the victim’s vehicle was seen by Oceanside police Friday morning in a parking lot, where four people inside were questioned in connection with the death and released.
Sheriff’s homicide detectives are investigating.
