Woman Drives with Dead Body in Car for a Year

COSTA MESA (KTLA) -- A woman drove around with a mummified corpse for months before the body was discovered by police.

Officers made the gruesome discovery on Monday while responding to a report of an illegally parked car.

Police say the woman tried to cover the remains with pieces of clothing.

The car was blocking a driveway in the 2000 block of Tustin Avenue in Costa Mesa.

Officers could smell a foul odor coming from the car, and after seeing a leg underneath the clothing, broke a window to get access inside.

Inside the car, officers also found a box of baking soda that the driver used to try to dissipate the smell.
