LOS ANGELES — British actor Julian Sands has been identified as one of two hikers who recently went missing in California's San Gabriel Mountains.
Search and rescue teams have been looking for Sands since he was reported missing in the Mt. Baldy area on Friday, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. Sands, 65, is known for his work in "A Room With a View" (1985), "Naked Lunch" (1991), "Warlock" (1989), "Snakehead" (2003) and dozens of other films and TV series. Born in the United Kingdom, Sands lives in North Hollywood.
A representative for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department said that ground crews were pulled off the mountain on Saturday evening due to avalanche risks and dangerous trail conditions. The search has continued, however, using helicopters and drones, and ground searches will resume when weather and safety conditions improve.
