On Tuesday Caltrans workers noticed skid marks in the area on Angeles Crest Highway at mile marker 41.69. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Montrose Search and Rescue team rappelled over the side of the cliff and found an SUV with brush grown around it.

The VIN of the SUV relates to a missing person in the Los Angeles Police Dept. area.

On Wednesday morning Montrose Search and Rescue team members went over the side of the highway again and found skeletal human remains, according to Lt. Jauch, LASD Homicide Unit.
