Authorities got the call reporting the body today just after 3. The road serves as a way in and out of Diamond Bar and some of its neighboring cities.
A body was found today in a trash can left on the side of Brea Canyon Road, police said.
A motorist spotted the trash can on the side of the road, Brea police Lt. Jerry Brakebill said.
"Someone driving by saw the trash can and apparently stopped to see what it was all about, opened it up, and, when they realized there was a body inside, called us," Brakebill said.
Police got the call at 3:08 p.m.
"We don't know at this point if it's a male, female, adult or a child," Brakebill said.
Police closed off Brea Canyon Road from Central Avenue to Tonner Canyon Road for the investigation. The road is an important artery for the city providing a way in and out when the freeways are packed.
