Authorities say they’ve found the body of a missing FBI agent who was reported missing more than two months ago.
The body of FBI special agent Stephen Ivens, who was reported missing on May 11, was found Monday night in a wooded area in the 3600 block of Scott Road near St. Francis Xavier School, Burbank police Sgt. Darin Ryburn said.
The body was discovered by two hikers who noticed a foul smell, according to police.
Police were working with Los Angeles County coroner’s officials to determine the cause of death and “officials identification.”
A spokeswoman for the FBI said she could not immediately comment.
"Every indication is that he’s been there from the first day,” Ryburn said. Ivens’ gun was also recovered near his body, Ryburn added.

A bizarre Foreign Ministry report circulating in the Kremlin today states that this Friday past (11 May) Russian Envoy Vladimir Vinokurov, the Consulate General of San Francisco, was approached near his hotel room during a visit to Los Angles by an agent of the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) identifying himself as Stephen Ivens who warned that he and a former FBI agent named Donald Sachtleben had uncovered evidence of an impending terror attack on US soil stating that those behind the attack were “all insane.”
