SONORA, Calif. — Authorities say human remains have been found in an area burned by a small wildfire in Northern California.
The Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office says Monday that the remains were discovered on a winding road in Sonora within the burn scar of the 100-acre Washington Fire.
The identity and the cause and time of death are under investigation. No other details were given.
The fire destroyed more than a dozen homes after breaking out last Thursday. It's 50% contained, with full containment expected by Wednesday.
