阿里巴巴前销售总监陈理在亚凯迪亚失联后被发现死于车内 警方排除他杀、死因待法医确认
位于加州洛杉矶县的亚凯迪亚市（Arcadia）华人居民陈理（Li Chen），曾任阿里巴巴销售总监，今年8月21日失联，9月4日被证实已经死亡，遗体在一辆车内被发现。此案一度由洛杉矶县警局（LASD）凶杀科接手调查；警方其后表示，调查已经完成，陈理之死没有外力介入，排除他杀，确切死因仍待洛杉矶县法医确认。
据亚凯迪亚市警局发布的寻人启事，陈理最后一次露面是在8月21日，当时身穿一件长款黑色外套、内搭长袖黑色Polo衫、脚穿黑色跑鞋。他的多名朋友发现他多日不回复微信后心生疑虑，向媒体求助，当地警方随后发布寻人启事。9月4日，亚凯迪亚市警局宣布陈理已经死亡；据该局一名行政主管介绍，他被发现死于车内，发现者为洛县警局 La Crescenta 分局的巡逻人员，该分局也是负责调查这起死亡事件的主要机构。洛杉矶县法医的记录显示，陈理的死亡时间为8月28日，遗体已交由亲属认领。
陈理来自福建，一家四口来美国生活已有两三年，最近才搬入亚凯迪亚的租住处。朋友形容，他为人低调、风趣幽默，平时回复微信很快，在聚会中颇受欢迎，每天接送孩子参加运动、把孩子挂在嘴边。
凶杀科介入后，死因一度成谜。至9月下旬，警方对媒体表示，目前可确定陈理之死无外力介入、排除他杀；一名警探表示，警方已完成调查，相关程序仍在进行，没有迹象显示有可疑外力介入。法医方面将死因标注为「延后确认」（deferred），称仍在等待毒理学等检测结果，最终死因将由法医裁定。陈理的两位朋友对警方「无外力介入」的结论表示不解：失踪之前，他还在问朋友要不要一起玩游戏。
截至目前，法医尚未公布陈理的最终死因。（GSM 据洛杉矶县法医记录与当地媒体报道）
Former Alibaba Sales Director Li Chen Found Dead in Vehicle After Going Missing in Arcadia; Police Rule Out Homicide, Cause of Death Pending
Li Chen, a Chinese resident of Arcadia, a city in Los Angeles County, California, who had worked as a sales director at Alibaba, went missing on August 21 and was confirmed dead on September 4 after his body was found inside a vehicle. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department (LASD) Homicide Bureau initially took over the investigation; detectives later said the investigation had concluded there was no foul play, and the exact cause of death remains pending with the Los Angeles County medical examiner.
According to the Arcadia Police Department's missing-person notice, Chen was last seen on August 21 wearing a long black coat over a long-sleeved black polo shirt and black running shoes. Friends grew concerned after he stopped replying to WeChat messages for days and turned to local media for help, and Arcadia police issued the missing-person notice. On September 4, Arcadia police announced that Chen had died. A department administrator said he was found dead in a vehicle by patrol deputies from the sheriff's Crescenta Valley Station in La Crescenta, the station primarily responsible for investigating the death. Los Angeles County medical examiner records list Chen's date of death as August 28, and his body has been released to his family.
Chen, a native of Fujian, had lived in the United States with his family of four for two to three years and had recently moved into a rented home in Arcadia. Friends described him as low-key and humorous, quick to reply to messages and well liked at gatherings, a father who drove his child to sports activities every day.
After the Homicide Bureau's involvement, the cause of death remained a mystery for weeks. By late September, police told reporters it was certain the death involved no outside force and that homicide had been ruled out; a detective said the investigation was complete, related procedures were still under way, and there were no signs of suspicious outside involvement. The medical examiner has listed the cause of death as deferred, pending results including toxicology, with the final determination to be made by the coroner. Two of Chen's friends said they could not understand the no-foul-play conclusion, noting that shortly before he vanished he had been asking friends whether they wanted to play games.
The medical examiner has not released a final cause of death as of this report. (GSM, based on Los Angeles County medical examiner records and local media reports)
