LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CA – A quiet weekend beach stroll turned unsettling when human remains were discovered along the shore in Palos Verdes Estates, California. Authorities are now investigating the discovery of a human skull and bones found at low tide.
Beachgoer Makes Grim Discovery
At approximately 3 p.m. on Saturday, a beachgoer reported finding what appeared to be a human skull and another bone near the low tide line at RAT (Redondo and Torrance) Beach, located on the 300 block of Paseo Del Mar in Los Angeles County.
Officers from the Palos Verdes Estates Police Department quickly responded to the scene. Acting Captain Aaron Belda described what officials found upon arrival.
“Sure enough, when they got there, they saw what looked to be a skull and a part of a skeleton, a torso in the surf,” Belda said.
Before the tide returned, additional bones were located in the area, police reported.
Coroner Confirms the Remains Are Human
Personnel from the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office were called to the scene and confirmed that the remains were human.
“There is no available information on the possible age or gender of the remains, nor is there information regarding the date or cause of death,” police said in a statement.
The remains are now with the coroner’s office for further analysis. Authorities are working to identify the individual and determine the circumstances surrounding the death.
