Los Angeles police on Monday were investigating the shooting death of a 20-year-old Palmdale man whose body was found in the back yard of a Pacoima house.

Joseph Alexander Jones died of a gunshot wound to the head, Sgt. Frank Reynoso said.

His body was found about 1:50 a.m. Monday behind a house in the 11000 block of DeFoe Avenue.

Reynoso said the death was reported as a suicide, but that detectives were looking into it because of apparently inconsistent evidence at the scene.
