Two months after a similar tragedy, a woman died Friday in a fall from a seaside cliff near Point Fermin in San Pedro.

Firefighters were dispatched about 2:10 p.m. to the 500 block of West Paseo del Mar to assist police and coroner’s personnel at the scene, according to Brian Humphrey of the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The female victim, whose name and age were not immediately available, was found dead at the base of a cliff “after (an) apparent fall,” Humphrey said.

It was not immediately clear if the victim intended to end her life.

On June 17, the body of a Hispanic male who appeared to be in his 50s was found in the same area.
