Diem Le Nguyen, 50, separated from her group during a hike along Nighthawk Trail on Black Mountain in San Diego before she went missing early Sunday.
The body of a woman believed to be a 50-year-old hiker who went missing on a trail in San Diego after separating from her group during a heat wave on Sunday was found just short of a populated area, authorities said. The body of an Asian woman, believed to be Diem Le Nguyen, was discovered off a trail around 9:15 a.m. Monday during a helicopter search of Black Mountain, San Diego Police Lt. Daniel Meyer told reporters during a news conference near the search area.
Due to the phone call and excessive heat in the mountains, Meyer said that search and rescue crews, which included helicopters, dogs, drones and ground teams, were immediately deployed to find Nguyen. Officials in California warned of high temperatures affecting inland San Diego over the weekend, and the National Weather Service issued an excessive heat advisory for parts of Southern California through Sunday. 'Obviously it’s a very painful moment for the family and friends,' Meyer said.
