Hunters Find Skull, Bones in Woods
A group of hunters discovered a human skull and other bones in a remote part of the woods near Aliso Canyon Road in Acton on Saturday, sheriff’s officials said.
The age and gender of the remains have yet to be determined, Deputy Bob Killeen said, adding that “the remains are believed to be human.”
Hunters found the skeletal remains about 2 p.m. in a mountainous and wooded area about four miles east of Soledad Canyon Road, Killeen said.
Homicide detectives and coroners officials were called to the scene about 4:15 p.m., Killeen said.
