The remains were found by hunters about 7 p.m. Saturday in a remote area of Pine Canyon, near the Upper Shake Campground, said Deputy Juanita Navarro- Suarez of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Information Bureau.
The hunters climbed down a mountain and reported the find to the sheriff’s Palmdale Station. Detectives, sheriff’s crime lab and county coroner’s personnel and a cadaver dog went to the scene on Sunday, Navarro- Suarez said.
Coroner’s personnel determined the remains were human, and homicide detectives “are investigating if there was any trauma or evidence of an injury on the remains …,” Navarro-Suarez said.
