LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding the deaths of two young men whose bodies were found in a culvert near Middletown on Monday.

Lake County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Lauren Berlinn identified the two men as Devon Stephen Stark, 31, and Leandro Natalgarcia, 37, both of Middletown.

Berlinn said the two men were found inside a camping tent in a concrete culvert under Highway 175.

She said a report on the discovery of the men’s bodies was called in to Cal Fire and then transferred to the sheriff’s coroner division.

“At this time, there are no signs of foul play. Autopsies are scheduled for this Thursday and results could take up to 90 days,” Berlinn said.
