Authorities are investigating a death outside Hollywood Burbank Airport on Wednesday morning during the height of the Thanksgiving travel rush.
The original call to police came in just after 8 a.m., according to officials.
The person’s body was located in the valet lane outside the main terminal, where passengers are picked up and dropped off on the same level. Police vehicles surrounded the scene, and a black canopy covered the body.
“Sadly, it appears the individual collapsed in the valet lane and died of natural causes,” a Burbank Police spokesperson told KTLA 5 News.
No other details were available, and it was unclear whether the deceased was a passenger or an airport employee.
