Public health officials in Los Angeles County are asking for help identifying a patient who was badly injured in San Pedro earlier this week.
The patient, an Asian male in his mid-20s, was found in the 3700 block of South Meyler Street, a residential area near Wilders Addition Park, on Monday after sustaining a traumatic brain injury, according to L.A. County Health Services.
The cause of his injury was not released.
He was found with a black backpack, a wallet containing Japanese currency, and several travel-size personal hygiene items, officials said. He does not have any visible tattoos or other distinguishable marks.
Authorities say the man is 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs approximately 158 pounds.
He was listed in grave condition at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center where he was intubated and sedated as of Wednesday.
Anyone with information that may help to identify him is asked to contact the hospital at (424) 306-5305.

Xenophobia and low key racism doesn’t fly as far in the states I guess
Poor man, I hope he can find his loved one.
Hope they find the dirt bag that did this.
Jesus Christ. Why would anyone do this?
Hope he makes it back home 🙁
So sad. I hope to see a update …..
bullshit behaviour
Maybe they can send fingerprint to fbi or airport. You have to get that done when entering the country.
I called them and suggested contacting the authorities and having fingerprints checked because everybody who comes into the country has their fingerprints on file as the person had Japanese money in their wallet they’re probably a visiting tourist.
Please G@d he gets better & can get back to the people who love & care about him 🙏🏻
