The victim, who had been stabbed several times in the upper body, was found in the 14500 block of Blythe Street near Van Nuys Boulevard at 12:15 a.m., Lt. Richard Pooler said. Officers were called after neighbors, hearing noises and seeing the body, called an ambulance.
The man, a Latino, was about 23 years old, Pooler said. There are no suspects in the slaying, which police think was related to a robbery, he said.
