Missing hiker’s body found in Yosemite National Park
According to an Associated Press report, authorities say they found the body of a hiker, who has been missing since July, in Yosemite National Park.
On Monday, national park officials said that the remains of 48-year-old Scott Tenczar, a native of San Jose, were found Saturday in a northeastern area of the park, the AP report states.
The cause of his death remains under investigation.
