“[They] faxed the necessary information to the hospital for pickup. They went to pick him up, but he wasn’t there,” said Salvador Morales, Alonzo’s son.
“They told us, ‘We went to go pick up your father-in-law. They said the National Guard picked him up. We’ve never heard of this. Was he in the military, a secret agent?’ I said no! He wasn’t, he’s just a mechanic,” said Marilyn Morales, Alonzo’s daughter-in-law.
Hospitals in Southern California have been overrun by a post-holiday surge of COVID-19 patients. Due to the COVID-19 crush, the National Guard is helping LA’s County Coroner with body transport and storage, but Alonzo s family says it took many calls to the hospital to learn about this.
