TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Human remains have been discovered on a Tucson hiking trail, authorities said Tuesday.

Pima County sheriff’s deputy James Allerton said investigators are working with the medical examiner and the Arizona Game and Fish Department to figure out what happened on the Pima Canyon Trail.

It appeared wildlife disturbed the remains but it’s unclear if the animal was responsible for the death, KGUN-TV reported.



Authorities said there’s no danger to the public but the trail was closed during the investigation.
