The Santa Clara County medical examiner's office has identified a man whose body was found in the San Jose foothills on Nov. 15.
Kevin Bryan Short of Sunnyvale, 42, was found at about 6 p.m. in the hills above Boulder Ridge Golf Course, Santa Clara County sheriff's Sgt. Don Morrissey said.
He was found shirtless, but a black T-shirt was found near the body.
The medical examiner's office last week asked for the public's help in identifying the man. However, investigators managed to identify him late Friday using his fingerprints.
San Jose police are still investigating the death but a police spokesman said it does not appear to be a murder.
"As of right now, it's not being investigated as a homicide," San Jose police Officer Enrique Garcia said.
