Pismo Beach: Body thought to be that of man who jumped from pier

A man found dead on the shore at Pismo Beach is thought to have drowned after jumping from the pier.

The body, on the beach near Ocean View Avenue, was reported around 2 a.m. Monday by a 911 caller.

The initial indication was that the man was fishing from the Pismo Beach Pier the previous evening and jumped into the ocean to retrieve a lost item, said Adan Orozco, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

He apparently then drowned. The man may have been in the water for a few hours before his body washed up on the shore, Orozco said.

The pier is about 300 yards north of where the body was found.

Pismo Beach police are investigating the death, and the San Luis Obispo County coroner is expected to conduct an autopsy. The man’s name was not released Monday.

I believe Diana and Hillary had several private lunches/brunches too. But there aren’t any photos of Princess Diana meeting Bill Clinton. That would have been a remarkable photo if it had happened. Apparently, Diana thought highly of President Clinton. Or, at the very least, she thought…

There was a time when the 23-year-old model enjoyed a reputation as the most natural and unapologetic member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan. While her sisters were forever seeking to "perfect" their appearances through cosmetic procedures and Instagram filters, Kendall was simply herself in all situations. In recent weeks, however, it seems that Kendall has become self-conscious about her appearance. It's a relatable problem, though it's not the kind that one usually associates with Victoria's Secret models. Anyway, Kendall has gotten into the habit of retouching her pics and videos, and her followers have…
