A dead body was found near Redding Civic Auditorium Sunday afternoon, and police say it was murder. The discovery was made at around 12:30PM behind Viking Skate Country. A woman was apparently pulling into the parking lot at the skating rink for a birthday party with her family when she saw the body and immediately knew the female was dead. Redding Police have not said the name of the victim, or if they know who she is, but the death is being investigated as a homicide.
