A man’s body was found Saturday morning in the Angeles National Forest, authorities said.

A hiker found the body around 7:47 a.m. near the Gould Mesa debris basin dam on the east trail near La Cañada Flintridge, said Crescenta Valley Sheriff’s Sgt. Cynthia Gonzales.

There have been no recent reports of missing hikers in the area, Gonzales said. ‘It may be a hiking accident, but that’s yet to be determined.’

The incident is currently under investigation. -- Tiffany Kelly, Times Community News
