Body found on 101 Freeway ramp in Cahuenga Pass; SigAlert issued

A SigAlert was issued Tuesday morning for the southbound 101 Freeway in the Cahuenga Pass as police investigated a body found on an offramp.

Details were still developing as officers remained on the scene, but a sergeant at the Los Angeles Police Department's Hollywood Station said preliminary information indicated the death was caused by an accidental fall or suicide.

The California Highway Patrol closed the Cahuenga Boulevard offramp about 5 a.m. It was not known when the roadway would reopen.
