Finder's Keepers Dead Whale Stalls San Francisco Officials
A three ton dead whale washed ashore off San Francisco prompting officers and agencies to advise. The whale was first spotted by 12 year old Norman Linoreaux who alerted Police Officer Charles Sandoval.

The health department could offer no solution leaving finder’s keepers as a possible outcome. The tide may carry the carcass away or Norman may claim it.
