Rescue personnel have launched a search for a second hiker on Mt. Baldy, the same snow-covered mountain where actor Julian Sands is missing.
The San Bernardino Sheriff's Department said in a statement that its search and rescue team received a request Sunday to search for a 75-year-old Los Angeles man on the 10,064-foot mountain.Chung carpooled to the mountain with two others and made plans to meet them at the vehicle at 2 p.m., but Chung did not return, authorities said. Ground crews searched unsuccessfully for Chung after he was reported missing.
"Helicopters and drones continued to use infrared devices during the search however, all were negative for any signs of Sands," the department's statement said. Authorities describe mountain conditions as extremely dangerous. Two hikers have died in recent weeks. One fell at least 500 feet down an icy slope.
