Hoping to identify a mystery man who was found floating in the surf Saturday at Bolsa Chica State Beach, the county coroner released a sketch Thursday.
The man, described as Hispanic or Middle Eastern, was spotted in the water around 9:50 a.m. near Tower 19, next to the camping grounds in Huntington Beach, officials said. He was taken to Huntington Beach Hospital, where he later died, according to a coroner press release.
Officials estimated his age at 25 to 35, and described him as 6 feet tall, 185 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Orange County Coroner's Office at 714-647-7411 and refer to Case No. 12-02271-RE.
June 18 Update: Because of an error in the original press release, an earlier version of this story incorrectly described the victim's hair color as brown. It was black.
