On December 5, 2015, the body of Robert Salters, an unclaimed male, was discovered on B Street in Hayward, California. Salters was known to be homeless at the time of his passing, and despite efforts to reach out to next of kin or other connections, his body has remained unclaimed. This case highlights the tragic reality faced by many individuals living without stable housing and underscores the difficulties authorities encounter in identifying and contacting relatives or acquaintances of deceased persons in similar circumstances.
The Alameda County Sheriff's Office - Coroner's Bureau is currently handling the case, under the Agency Case Number 2015-03603.
