Authorities are investigating the death of a UC Berkeley student whose body was found on the patio of his apartment building hours after he graduated with a degree in anthropology.

Alan Kaname Hamai, 22, of Redondo Beach apparently fell from the roof of the three-story building early Saturday. His body was found by another resident of the building, and he was pronounced dead at 6:40 a.m., according to the Alameda County coroner's office. An autopsy was scheduled for today.

Hamai's parents attended his graduation ceremony Friday and were on their way back to Southern California on Saturday when they were notified of his death, according to the university.

Hamai is the second UC Berkeley student from Southern California to die outside a student hall this month.

Engineering student Christopher Wooten, 21, of Bellflower was stabbed in a sorority parking lot early May 3 after two groups of young men got into an argument.
