PALMDALE, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say a person has been found dead inside the wreckage of a vehicle found a few hundred feet down a steep embankment along a mountain road in the Angeles National Forest.
California Highway Patrol Officer Patrick Kimball says the body was discovered Sunday afternoon near the intersection of Mount Emma Road and the Angeles Forest Highway south of Palmdale.
Kimball tells City News Service the badly damaged vehicle had “been there a while,” but it was unclear how long.
Authorities have not yet identified the person found in the car.
