According to the Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to Chaminade Resort & Spa early Monday morning for a report of a domestic disturbance. A man involved in the dispute left on foot prior to deputies arriving. During the course of the investigation, deputies searched for the man but were unable to find him due to the rugged terrain and heavily wooded environment.
Over the next few days, Sheriff’s Office deputies and detectives continued to follow up on the investigation over the next few days. Deputies, detectives and members from the Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue Team searched the wooded area and used drones in an attempt to locate the man.
The Search and Rescue Team found the missing man’s body Thursday in a steep ravine. The Sheriff’s Office has not released the man’s identity. The investigation is active, and the cause of death will be determined by the coroner.
