Update: The vehicle that was discovered off Angeles Crest Highway is connected to Kimberly Blum, 47, who was reported missing to Los Angeles police in June 2014, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said Thursday evening.

Original story:

Skid marks on a wilderness roadway led authorities to a more gruesome find: the skeletal remains of a woman who may have been missing for years.

A crew from the California Department of Transportation working along Angeles Crest Highway near Mt. Wilson spotted the skid marks Tuesday and alerted police, according to the Los Angeles County sheriff’s department.

A search-and-rescue team rappelled down to the vehicle and saw that it appeared to have been abandoned.
