Police are investigating the death of a man who was found with head trauma outside a Corona home Friday night.

Amar Amador, 51, was found unconscious and unresponsive by officers at about 11:30 p.m. in front of a Corona Avenue residence near 103rd Street, cops said.

Amador, who lived in the neighborhood less than 10 blocks from where he was found, was taken to Elmhurst Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

His death appears to be consistent with a fall, according to a police source.

The incident is still under investigation, however, and the medical examiner will determine the cause of death and whether any criminality may have been involved.
