SAN DIEGO — Authorities have identified an Egyptian man whose body was found floating off a Southern California beach last week. San Diego police identified him Monday as 37-year-old Abdelkader Elshayeb. A fisherman on a boat spotted Elshayeb’s body last Wednesday about 2 1/2 miles (4 kilometres) off of Mission Beach. Police say the man wore only surfer-style swim trunks but he had a chain around his waist. Authorities say there was no obvious sign of injury on the man’s body but the cause of death remains under investigation.
