Santa Monica Beach, with its azure seas and beautiful landscapes, gathered numerous tourists.
People were swimming in the sea, surfing, sunbathing, and playing beach volleyball, all amidst laughter and cheerful voices.
In stark contrast was the crime scene, cordoned off with police tape, as if it belonged to a different world.
The gruesome state of the crime scene also attracted the onlookers from many tourists.
