Human remains found in Mexico are that of a LAFD firefighter who went missing in August.
Francisco Aguilar disappeared without a trace on August 20.
LAFD Chief Ralph Terrazas said in a statement on Twitter "Our department was notified this afternoon that authorities in Mexico determined that human remains recently found there are those of LAFD Firefighter/Paramedic Francisco Aguilar. This is a tragic outcome to a case we were hoping would end differently. On behalf of the men and women of LAFD, we send our deepest condolences to Firefighter Aguilar's family and we stand ready to assist them in the days to come."
Two people were arrested in October in the disappearance of a Los Angeles firefighter in Mexico who went missing in Tijuana.
Two people were arrested in connection with his disappearance last month in Mexico. There's no word at this time on if they were involved in his death.
