http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2017/06/02/human-remains-san-clemente/The remains were found and reported Thursday afternoon by a biologist shortly after 2 p.m. near Camino Vera Cruz and Avenida Pico.
....
It wasnt clear how long the remains had been at the location. Officials said many homeless people are encamped in and around the area.

Detectives said they have recovered a human skull. Authorities have also not determined if the deceased was a man or a woman.

The remains were taken to the Orange County coroners office in Santa Ana to be examined by a pathologist who will try to determine age and gender, if not a name, Orange County Sheriffs Department Lt. Lane Lagaret said.
Hopefully with the teeth we can find something, he said.
Homicide investigators will take over the case, but the pathologists at the coroners office will be the first stop. Investigators will also examine missing persons reports and unsolved crimes.
