A body burned so badly that police couldn’t identify if it was a man or a woman was identified Tuesday as Charles E. Logan, age 59 of San Martin, police said.
The body was found beside a burned car near Uvas Reservoir the morning of Sept. 12.
A sheriff’s deputy was initially dispatched to investigate a possible fire complaint near Uvas Reservoir in Morgan Hill. When the deputy arrived he discovered a vehicle fully engulfed in flames. The vehicle was parked about 100 yards from the roadway on a dirt access road. The deputy immediately requested the fire department to respond and extinguish the fire.
Shortly after Santa Clara County Fire Department personnel arrived they located a deceased person near the burning vehicle. The area was immediately isolated to allow for a thorough investigation. The initial investigation revealed that the fire was not the cause of death, but the investigation remains open at this time. It appears that there is nothing suspicious about the death, police said.
