The Kitsap County Medical Examiner’s office is investigating the death of a man found near the intersection of Pass Street and Grays Harbor Court in the Jackson Park area of Bremerton July 26.

Due to hazardous terrain, the body was recovered with assistance from the Bremerton Fire Department and Navy Region Northwest Fire and Emergency Services.

An autopsy was done by chief medical examiner Lindsey Harle. Due to advanced decomposition, identification as well as cause and manner of death are pending records comparisons, toxicology results and outside testing.

The medical examiner will release further information when it becomes available.
