A Nevada man was arrested after a woman was found dead at a remote Northern California campsite early Friday, according to the Sierra County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies responded shortly after midnight to a rugged area south of Sierra Brooks, a rural community located east of Downieville. 

The Sierra County Sheriff’s Office told Fox News Digital that the body was not found anywhere near the Sierra Brooks residential area. 

Upon arrival, law enforcement discovered a woman’s body and encountered a man described as “incoherent,” authorities said in a press release.

Authorities emphasized that they believe this was an isolated incident and that there is no ongoing threat to the community.
