<\/p>\nMokelumne Hill, CA…On June 20, 2019, at about 2:30 PM, the Calaveras County Sheriff\u2019s Office was dispatched to the Mokelumne River near the inlet of Lake Pardee for a deceased white male.

<\/p>\n
The deceased male has not been positively identified, however, Sheriff\u2019s Detectives tentatively believe that the human remains are that of David Gordon Johnson. David Johnson was originally reported as a missing person to the Sacramento County Sheriff\u2019s Office on Wednesday, June 5, 2019. <\/p>\n
A motorcycle which had been ridden by David Johnson was located at the Big Bar River Access near the town of Mokelumne Hill on June 7, 2019. Prior to the discovery of the body, Sheriff\u2019s Detectives pieced together circumstances and evidence which suggested that David Johnson may have entered the Mokelumne River and become the victim of accidental drowning. <\/p>\n
