WALNUT CREEK — A transgender person who identified as a woman and was found dead along southbound Interstate 680 near the Walnut Creek BART station on Wednesday morning was identified by the Contra Costa Coroner’s Office on Thursday.

A coroner’s deputy confirmed that Natalie Nereza, 25, of Concord, likely jumped to her death from the BART tracks between the Lafayette and Pleasant Hill stations. She was found just north of the Olympic Boulevard exit near the Highway 24 junction.

Police were summoned about 12:15 a.m. on Wednesday after passing motorists saw the body.
